goal
1963 was the year Martin Luther King stood and quoted his iconic speech, "I have a dream..". He looked back 100 years ago when the Emancipation Proclamation was signed and still saw discrimination and prejudice existing and now even looking back further, standing in 2013 there is still discrimination and prejudice living around the ever ringing words "All Men Are Created Equal". In some areas they are still worse off now in 2013 than we were those 100 years ago.
India...as the video states has one of the oldest caste systems that is still held to this day. These people are referred to the Untouchables..people who are not even looked upon as having rights to necessity like clean water. In the 1960s we separated blacks and whites, making them have separate bathrooms, these people don't in 2013 have a right to share a bathroom.
This month Charity Water is focusing on gathering funds for India and the Untouchables so they too can have what I believe is a human right not a privilege to be able to have a drink when thirsty, a shower to clean oneself, and a toilet to relieve oneself.
With your help & Charity Water we can help to bring water to 100 villages in Orissa, India and end typhoid disease, discrimination, and poor economic levels in this area.
