It's that time of year again where I fundraise for a nonprofit for my birthday.
I started this three years ago with Give Kids The World Village - helping different nonprofits each year - and have realized that the best birthday gift I've been able to give myself is giving to others. This year, I've decided to raise $700 for charity: water!
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.
You all are INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much. I can't wait to see the GPS coordinates of our direct impact!
Anyone can do this. I hope this inspires you in the future, and I can pay it forward in your honor. <3
Happy Birthday- sweet, beautiful friend! We love you!
Really great message, Colleen. I hope you and the family are doing great!
This is an amazing and inspiring idea! You've just given me the perfect way to celebrate my next birthday. Wishing you many blessings!
