This summer, I wanted to take my passion for rainbow loom jewelry making and turn it into a fundraiser to bring clean water to Africa. I got the idea from the 5th grade class at my school--they were able to raise over $10,000 to build a well in Africa by selling friendship bracelets!!! I've set my goal pretty high at $3,000, which is a lot of bracelets, rings and necklaces, but I'm committed to making this happen. When I reach my goal, I will provide clean water to 75 people in Africa.

If you'd like to donate, I would like to make you a customized piece of Rainbow Loom Jewelry as a token of my appreciation. You tell me the colors, and I will make you an item of your choosing. Any donation helps!

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink -- even the water in our toilets is clean!

But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

I started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me.

Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.
