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.

Instead of birthday gifts, I'm asking friends and family to help me raise money for charity water. Together, we can build projects around the world to deliver clean water.

Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help. Thank you for making my birthday great! Peyton
