Today is Riley Gale (of Power Trip)'s birthday! Per usual, he's out on the road and likely "celebrating" it in a cinder block-lined green room under fluorescent lights until it's time to load out at some ungodly time of the night.

If you know Riley, you know that he's extremely passionate about causes and wants to see far less suffering in this world. So rather than #DOSHOTS or whatever you're "supposed" to do to inebriate your loved ones on their birthday, I thought it would be awesome to have a clean water well built in Riley's honor in a part of the world that needs it.

By donating to this campaign, you'll be able to personally track the progress of an actual clean water well being installed in a community that needs it (as will Riley). From experience, it's one of the most fulfilling sensations one can experience when seeing video and pics of the finishing touches going in... all because YOU took a few second to donate. Whether it's a couple bucks or a couple hundred, 100% actually goes into the project! See more from charity: water below and HAPPY BIRTHDAY RILEY!!!

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink -- even the water in our toilets is clean!

But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

I started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me.

Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.
