Great to see Mary Puzder in my neighborhood, who I first met through Cleveland Public Library. Mary serves as the Marketing Content Specialist at Cleveland Sight Center and is someone who consistently puts her energy into helping others, supporting important causes, and making a real impact in the Cleveland community through both her professional work and volunteer efforts.

Mary was in my neighborhood passing out information about the upcoming 13th annual 4 Miles 4 Water event on May 30. In her free time, she volunteers with the Associate Board of Drink Local Drink Tap, an organization working to improve water equity through projects, programming, and partnerships. The event also raises awareness about the more than 2 billion people worldwide affected by water scarcity, many of whom walk an average of four miles each day to collect often unsafe water.

It was great catching up with Mary and hearing about the work being done to bring more attention to global water access and community engagement here in Cleveland. To learn more about the upcoming event, visit Thanks Mary for the photo and hope to see you again soon!

Please join us in welcoming our newest Board Member, Bryan Glosik!

Bryan serves as the Director of Energy & Water at The NRP Group, where he leads strategies to improve water and energy efficiency across large multifamily communities, bringing both environmental impact and real-world value. Based right here in Northeast Ohio, he brings deep expertise in utility management, sustainable infrastructure, and water conservation.

Bryan is passionate about the health of the Great Lakes and understands that protecting our local water resources is essential to supporting communities around the world. 🌍

When he’s not advancing water solutions, you’ll find him in Lakewood with his wife, two kids, two dogs, and a canary- or out coaching youth sports, exploring Great Lakes beaches, or casting a line with his fly rod.

We’re excited to have Bryan join the Drink Local Drink Tap family and help move our mission forward. Welcome, Bryan!
