Every day, 1,400 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. Let's help change that!

My birthday is almost here. I'm blessed to have incredible friends and family and I'm really thankful to have lived another happy, healthy year. When I was 8, I pledged my birthday to help millions of kids around the world that don't live to see their fifth birthday because they don't have access to clean, safe drinking water. We can help change that.

As I turn 11, instead of a gift on my birthday I'm asking for my age in dollars from everyone I know. Every penny of the money raised will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 21 months). That means we'll know the locations and names of the communities we helped.

Help me reach my goal. Please donate $11 to my birthday campaign!
