goal
The Welly Maker was such an incredible success raising over $40,000 and delivering sustainable clean water solutions for over 1300 people worldwide.
Given charity:water's long history with birthday campaigns, I wanted to donate my 36th birthday to another campaign in hopes of providing more people with access to clean water and in turn giving those people a better chance to celebrate more birthdays.
I'm kicking off the campaign with a $3,600 donation and hoping to inspire others to contribute $36 for my upcoming 36th birthday.
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.
