Why Robin Corbin is fundraising for clean water

On April 7, I'm turning 50.

At first, this seemed surreal, even daunting.

But then I found out that millions of people don't live to see their fifth birthdays. And why? Because they don't have access to clean, safe water.

So I'm not concerned about turning 50 anymore. In fact, I'm celebrating my birthday like never before.

I'm asking for a $50 donation from everyone I know -- and every penny of the money raised will go directly to fund clean water projects in developing nations. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 18 months). That means we'll be able to see the communities we've helped!

My goal is to raise $10,000 and provide 500 people with clean water by my birthday in April.

Please join me to make this birthday count.
