    This is SO COOL. I tweeted the Pres thrice this week about charity: water. (I'm pretty sure it wasn't me that brought the org to his awareness but I can't help thinking about the possibility! haha) Let's ride the wave! :)

    So glad Pres. Obama is aware of how important it is to support this very neccessarycharity. Adam Lambert will be so proud of what this will mean to so many desperate for clean water that so many take for granted. I'm sure he appreciates the many donations that have surpassed his expectations and what you have done to save so many lives and made life more bearable. This is a wonderful organization and I hope more will join in to help.

    Charity:Water organization has the best aim for people’s goodness in terms of life awareness. And their organization absolutely deserves it to be appreciated by President Obama, Water is life and it is most valued, any person can’t live with a contaminated water that surrounds him so thanks to your organization for making a better life for Africa and other countries.Veronica Watts,Car DonationWheels for Wishes

    I heard about charity: water a few months ago and this week finally took the time to check out your site and mission. Scott’s story and talk at Big Omaha is inspiring and should be  mandatory watching for all Americans! What a fantastic story! Thank you for focusing on the those throughout the world that are less fortunate than ourselves. There is so much going on here…thank you Scott and all at charity: water!
