There are 748 million people in the world living without access to clean water. Let's change that!

Hi friends!

Thanks for the birthday wishes! 21 was an incredible year full of growth, adventure, and fun, and I know 22 will be even better. I feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded with the people and opportunities that I am, and genuinely want to say thank you those that have been there along the way. Now, time for me to ask for your money.

I started following charity:water's work last year, and a few months ago I dedicated my birthday to raising money for their cause. They are a non-profit dedicated to bringing clean, safe drinking water to developing nations across the globe. It's hard to grasp that some people don't enjoy access to what seems like such a basic staple of our lives, and it doesn't have to be that way.

I've started off my campaign with a $50 donation, and set a total goal of $500. For the next three days, I'm matching any donations up to a total of an additional $100. Any amount that you can spare, be it $5, $20, or $50, would be incredibly appreciated, both by myself but mostly by those that you are giving to.

If you've made it this far, thank you for reading! Below are a few links that you can learn a bit more about their mission and why I'm interested in being a part of it:
