This campaign closed on Dec 31, 2019 Casals De Spa & Salon brought clean water to Mananjary and 2 other projects.
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.
This campaign brought clean water to Mananjary, Madagascar and 2 other projects.

We all have heard how gratitude makes for a happy life. Tonight, as our goal was met (and surpassed!), I felt a tremendous hit of gratitude. And I learned something important in that instant: gratitude is not only good for the spirit, but it also delivers tremendous joy. When I yelled our achievement for all of Clarendon to hear (!), I felt happiness, joy, gratitude, and energy all at once. As we all applauded, I looked around the room at all of you and almost wanted a moment just to ourselves, so I could say, thank you. I wanted to tell you that moment was the feeling of togetherness, team work, and success. And damn, it felt good!
We moved outside of ourselves and our world. We found a need, one difficult for us to imagine – the gift of water, such a basic element – that was denied to many, and we believed we could make a difference. And we did, even if it is a gallon of water at a time. The fact you all were onboard with this water drive, bodes well for any other goal we set as a team.
Remember how we all felt tonight. Remember the high that comes with setting a goal and achieving it. Remember the energy in the applause as we felt a success. Remember at the base of the good feeling was charity. Remember the togetherness.
I will not forget. Thank you!

Diseases from unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Your donation will help change that.
100% of the money raised by this campaign is being used to bring clean water to help those in need. In 21 months we’ll be able to show you exactly where the money went and who it helped.
