Every day, 5,000 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. I'm gonna help change that!

My birthday is almost here. I'm not usually excited about getting older, but this year I'm really thankful to have lived another happy, healthy year. I recently learned that millions of kids around the world don't live to see their fifth birthday because they don't have access to clean, safe drinking water. We can help change that.

I'm turning 9 in a few days and this year I don't want any gifts instead I'm asking you to make a donation to Charity Water. when I was younger i used to go to Mali and I met a lot of kids who suffered because of the conditions of access to water. I saw these children near the river helping their mothers to wash dishes and clothes and wearing those heavy buckets of water to their homes, instead of playing and just being kids... We are not all rich, but we all have a birthday so by giving up our presents at least once, we'll make this world a better place. Thank you!!!!
I'm asking for my age in dollars from everyone I know.
Help me reach my goal. Please donate to my birthday campaign!
