Come December, I'll spend 8 nights opening gifts for Hanukkah. Every year, I'm reminded of why these days matter. Because by a miracle, oil enough for one day burned long enough to last eight days. As with our faith, and as with many things in life, a little proved to go a long way.

When I found out that more than a billion people live without clean, safe water every day, I realized Hanukkah was the perfect time to start a campaign. A little can go a very long way with water. Just $20 gives someone clean water for twenty years. And just $250 gives two families of six clean water. These are small amounts of cash to us. They are years of life for others.

My goal? I want to raise $6000 by the time the Holidays reaches us this year. But I need your help. Because of charity:water's innovative new business model, 100% of every donation funds water projects in the developing world, and each project is "proved" using GPS technology and photos and placed on Google Earth.

Together, we'll be able to see what we've accomplished.

Let's make our little go a long way.
