Every year my birthday seems to go the same way. I get Christmas presents one day, then more presents the next. Frankly, I'm tired of this never-ending cycle of getting things that I'll outgrow, get bored with, and just things that I really don't need. So I want to make my sweet sixteen a memorable one.

This year, I only have one thing written down on my 16th birthday list, and that is to give someone the gift of water. With your help, I'd like to raise 1,000$ for my campaign "16 for 50". This 1,000$ will replace my birthday presents. Your gift to my campaign will provide the funding that will go towards building a well in Ethiopia that will provide 50 people, at least 10 families, clean water. With your help, my goal for this campaign is to help provide families a basic human need, and endless opportunities along with it.

Matthew 25:35-40
