Why Linda Brown is fundraising for clean water

At my age, I've got more stuff than I need--way more stuff.

So this year, I'm dedicating my birthday to clean water projects.

Instead of asking for gifts, I'm asking everyone I know to donate to this good cause. Your donations will go to build freshwater projects for people in developing countries.

Almost a billion people in the world are living without clean water. Millions contract deadly diseases from contaminated water--30,000 people will die this week alone. Many have to walk hours each day to get dirty water for their families.

My birthday wish this year is to give clean and safe drinking water to some of the billion people living without it. I want to make my birthday matter this year.

About 18 months after this campaign ends, charity: water will show us where and how every dollar we raised ended up helping in the field. We'll see GPS coordinates, photos and more details about the communities we've impacted.

Please join me.
