Why Crystal English is fundraising for clean water

Almost a billion people on the planet don't have access to clean drinking water. That's one in eight of us. That number blows my mind.

February 22nd is my 35th Birthday. My wish for this milestone year is to have my friends and family help me build a clean water well in Ethiopia.

In Ethiopia, kids walk for hours and hours each day to fetch what is essentially dirty water. This not only spreads sickness and disease, but keeps them out of school. And without education they can't help build their communities.

For just $20, we can change a life. That's all it takes to give one kid clean water for 20 years.

(Not much when you consider the money we blow on a few drinks at District.)

$250 means two families of six can get clean water.

$5,000 builds a well for an entire village.

Please watch the video to the right, give, and join me in bringing clean water to the folks who need it.
