I am turning 25 this year and I while I don't normally throw huge celebrations for my birthday, I am making my birthday a much bigger deal this year. Instead of presents or dinner, I am asking everyone to donate to charity: water. charity: water is an international non-profit that brings clean water to people all around the world. Since I am turning 25, I am asking everyone to donate $25 and I am setting our goal at $1000. If we raise $1000 we will give 10 families access to clean water. That is 10 mothers who can give their children water that will not make them sick. Also, once the well is built which usually takes about 18 months, charity: water will send us the gps coordinates of the well as well as pictures and stories of the lives that it will change.

If you would like more information on charity: water and some of their other projects please visit charitywater.org for more information, or you can watch the video at the bottom of this page.

Thanks so much for investing in clean water and the future generations of the world.

Ryan.
