goal
All of my birthdays have always been about stuff. Stuff I don't want, stuff I definitely don't need.
So this year, I'm giving my birthday up.
I'm turning 28 years old and in place of any tangible gift, I'm asking for $28 or more from everyone I know. All of it is going to build freshwater projects for people in developing countries. I set a goal of $1500. That's enough to bring fresh water to 75 individuals who currently go without clean, fresh water.
Almost a billion people in the world are living without clean water. Millions contract deadly diseases from contaminated water. 30,000 people will die this week alone. The lucky ones won't, but still have to walk hours each day to get dirty water for their families.
My birthday wish this year is not for more gifts I don't need; it's to give clean and safe drinking water to some of the billion people living without it.
The best part: 100% of all donations go directly toward water projects. 18 months after this campaign ends, charitywater.org will show us where and how every dollar we raised ended up helping in the field.
Please join me.
