Why Amy Ha is fundraising for clean water

We don't spend too much time thinking about water - it's everywhere we go. When we're thirsty, we flip a handle or push a button. When we're dirty, we twist a shower knob. When our garden needs watering, when our pasta needs to be boiled, when we use the bathroom - water's just there for the taking.

But for a billion people on the planet, it's not. Millions of women and children have to walk hours each day to get water from muddy ponds and rivers. And much of that water is infested with parasites and leeches. There are so many people that need help. There are so many needs, so many good causes.

When I learned that only $20 can give someone clean, safe water for two decades, I decided to start a campaign to help. Now, my first goal is to raise $2000.00 to help build wells in developing nations. And the cool thing about charity: water is that they spend 100% of the money I raise directly on the water projects. Even better, when projects are complete, every dollar is tied to each village and all the wells are posted on Google Earth.

I've never actually been dying of thirst. But many people are. And we can all help by giving clean water to those that need it most.

Together, we can make a dent in the global water crisis. I hope you'll consider helping:)
