Why Erik Yates is fundraising for clean water

Many of us have no idea what its like to be thirsty.

Here in the United States, we use about 400 billions gallons of water each day. That means the average family of four is responsible for about 400 gallons per day.

But imagine if you had no clean water. Imagine sweating and straining to haul contaminated water back to your family. Imagine suffering from preventable things like diarrhea, parasites or leeches. Unbelievably, 80% of all diseases in the world are caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation.

After learning more about charity: waters work, we know that we can make a dent in the global water crisis. We're starting a campaign and in the next three months, We're going to raise $[5,000] to build clean water wells for the millions who need them.

Insula is looking for anyone that can help us express love to our neighbor by providing them the basic substance of life, eliminate wasted productivity currently spent taking hours to get water, stop preventable disease, and more.

Together, we've got an incredible opportunity to provide clean water for those in need. And the great thing about donating to charity: water is that 100% of donations go directly to the water projects, and well get to see exactly what projects our dollars funded.

Please put your faith in action and join us.
