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

If you are reading this, you probably don't worry about clean water. However, around the world, nearly 800 million men, women and children do not have access to safe, clean water. This negatively impacts their health, keeps children from attending school, and traps millions of people in a cycle of poverty. These things change when solutions to access safe water are implemented.

Charity: water believes clean water changes everything. We’ve created our own fundraisers through charity: water because we believe in their mission and that safe water is necessary for life (we are passionate about it). We feel so strongly that we are donating all of the proceeds from our fundraiser and from Second Chance, our second-hand gacha emporium, to provide clean water through charity: water. Please donate online here or in Second Life by going to:

WAYS YOU CAN HELP

• Educate yourself and others about the global water crisis. This costs you nothing (except your time) and contributes immensely to raising awareness of the issues.
• Donate L$ at the Second Chance Donation Fountain. Every drop counts!
• Purchase items at the Second Chance Emporium. Perfect for buying inexpensive gifts for friends (and yourself). Many items are available in our expanded emporium and stock changes often because people are so generous.
• Donate surplus transferable items from your SL Inventory to the Second Chance Item Donation Jerry Can (just outside the main Shoppe).
• Donate what you, friends and family are able directly at the charity: water website: my.charitywater.org/denise-infinity/virtual-world-for-a-real-cause-vi
• Start a clean water campaign in your own geographic area. Charity: water resources make it easy to have a real impact on this issue.

No matter what options you choose, 100% of the proceeds will go towards clean water projects around the world through charity: water, and help solve a global problem.

We know there are a lot of worthy charities out there, but the water crisis is something we can change. We hope you agree and show your support by giving whatever amount you can to support our sixth water campaign.

For every $30 (or about L$7,500) that we raise, charity: water can provide someone access to safe water for years to come. Our past fund-raisers have collected over L$290,000--virtual dollars making a real impact--resulting in over $1,000 in donations towards projects in Cambodia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Malawi and Uganda.

Total contributions through charity: water campaigns have funded 20,000+ projects that impact over 6 million people worldwide.

Together, we can change lives through something as basic as clean water. Why are we passionate about water? Because creating access to safe drinking water is the most powerful way to improve the world.

Love Water. Then spread the Love.
