Why Dianne (Joni) Ladd is fundraising for clean 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.

My husband Bruce and I have been supporting clean water and sanitation projects in African and Central American countries for many years because we believe it makes a huge difference in people's lives and also to the health of the planet. I started my first charity:water birthday campaign when I turned 63 to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm grateful for the support I have received from family and friends over the years to make these projects a reality.

Please donate to my 70th birthday campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help - and let's keep making a positive difference!

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. I will keep you updated, as I have since the first campaign. Thanks so much and blessings to you and your family!
