Why AMANDA MARTIN-NAMMOUR is fundraising for clean water

In three months, I'm going to have as many people as I can do Yoga with me to raise awareness for charity:water.

The classes offered will be Bikram yoga (26 poses done twice in a 105 degree room with 40% humidity for 90 minutes), Astanga yoga, or Gentle yoga. That is ALOT of sweating, pushing, and giving everything I've got.

Sounds kinda rough, right? Well, imagine doing all of that without clean water.

Every week, millions of women and their children walk more than 14 miles just to get water for their families. Most of this water is contaminated, but it's the only water they have. They take the chance of contracting deadly diarrheal diseases with every sip. There's nothing they can do to change this.

So, what can I do?

My mission is to raise $5,000 for water. I want every pose to matter. I'm asking for pledges per class ($20 per class), per pose or flat out donations to help achieve my goal.

The best part: 100% of everything we raise will go straight to building water projects in the field. Then, when the projects are complete, charity: water will show us just where they are and who they're helping (with GPS coordinates, photos and other details). We'll be able to see the communities we've impacted.

Stay tuned for more details on how YOU can participate in these classes with me but until then I hope you'll join me in making a difference now! <3
