Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty, as clean water is a seamless and ever present part of our lives.

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.

I'm not trying to guilt you, but I am trying to help you recognize that there are simple solutions to helping, if you are interested.

I've gotten presents all my life, but water is a gift I have every day. I'd love nothing more for my birthday for us want to collectively share this gift we take for granted with others.

Charity Water helps create drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

I'm looking for 25, ONLY 25, friends of mine to donate $15 each to reach my fundraising goal of $375 dollars. This translates to 12 people getting access to clean water.

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.

Even if you can't donate, I'd love for you to spread the word either about my campaign or Charity Water itself.

Thank you for being a unique and impactful person in the world!!
