Do you know Samantha Koreski? Then you know how much she likes to keep a tidy and clean home in which she can host family and friends... and bake cookies! Well friends, I'm not going to fix the hole in our ceiling caused by last night's pipe leak until we raise enough money to provide clean water to 10 people. See, last night as we sat there being bummed that we had to fix a pipe that brings us clean water that we take for granted every day, we came to the realization of how lucky we are that this pipe leak is something we get to call an inconvenience. How much does it cost to give 10 people clean water? Only $300! We can help 10 people get access to clean water who have never had the opportunity to deal with a leaky pipe that brings fresh clean water directly to their home... 10 people who walk 2 hours or more to get a container of water, that you or I wouldn't even dip our toe in, just to survive, let alone thrive. So if you like helping people get clean water, and you like my wife being happy (I sure do!), then give a donation to my charity water campaign. Any amount, large or small, would be great! Once we've got 10 people clean water, I'll fix the ceiling. Until then, no parties or cookies for anyone!
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.
Thank you all for donating! You are awesome! Be sure to check for follow-up emails from charity: water to track where your money went. That's the best part!
Samantha - you and your husband are awesome. Thank you!
