800 million people in the world are without access to clean water - step away from empathy and embrace action.

I love the phrase "Anchored in Love". Some of you may know that last year for my birthday I got a tattoo of an anchor on my hand as a daily reminder of this phrase.

My birthday is almost here (a day away) and the question I never really have an answer for is "What do you want for your birthday?". The truth is - I have more than I need. Seriously - I have way more than I need.

The greater truth is that there are people in our world today - people we don't see, people we don't talk to and likely never will, that are living without the most basic of necessities - water. So, this year all I want is for people I love and care about to take that same compassion and love that they would show me with a gift and use that money to impact lives beyond our own world.

Every penny of the money raised will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 21 months). That means we'll know the locations and names of the communities we helped.

Help me remained anchored in love. Please donate to my birthday campaign and share with your friends.

I will also be providing a link soon where you can purchase a t-shirt where all of the profit will go towards funding this campaign. Check back soon!
