Dear Family and Friends,

In 2010, a lot of happiness went our way. I got engaged to Jiajia, the most wonderful girl in the world, and we're currently planning our wedding to take place next year.

With your help and encouragement, we'd like to do so much more. We're raising money for clean drinking water.

charity: water has become our charity and outlet to reach out and give back. We live in a privileged world and take a lot of things for granted. But we've decided to actively give back. Please join us.

We're trying to raise $5,000 in 90 days to help build a well in a place where it's needed most. It doesn't matter where that place is, but there are plenty of them, and we're just trying to contribute a little.

Just $20 USD can give one person 20 years of clean water and open so many doors for social and economic development. You can see the stats on www.charitywater.org.

To show you we mean it, we plan to donate $5 for each of the 90 days in this campaign. With $50 to start it off, at the end of the campaign, we will have contributed 10% of the goal. We hope you can help us get there.

We're blessed to have such great friends and family like you. We can't wait to spend our lives together. We'd like to celebrate the future by funding a well and helping a community get life's most precious need.

(This last paragraph was taken from one of charity: water's templates. It was so well-written that we had to keep it)

Thank you,

Hsu "Fatbuddha" Li and Jiajia "Georgia on my mind" Hu
