Many of us have no idea what its like to be thirsty. And for most of us, we don't have to worry about where our water is coming from.

But for 1 out of every 7 people, they don't have access to clean water, and it's killing them. Literally.

Imagine sweating and straining to bring stanky contaminated water back to your family every day. Imagine getting diarrhea, parasites or leeches with your water. Unbelievably, 80% of all diseases in the world are caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation.

After learning more about charity: water's work, we're starting a campaign and in the next three months, together, we're going to raise $5,000. That's enough money, to give a village of 250 people, clean water for the next 20 years. Imagine the impact we can have when we put our resources to work.

I believe you can help.

Please join us.
