goal
Every day, 1,400 kids under 5 die from water-related sicknesses. For my birthday we can help change that!
My birthday is almost here and this year I'm really thankful to have such a good life. I recently learned that millions of kids around the world don't live to see their fifth birthday because they don't have clean, safe drinking water. We can help change that.
I'm asking for my age- that's 9- in dollars from everyone I know. Right now a company will match all of the donations, too!! So for every $18 I raise one person will get clean water. Every penny of the money raised will pay for clean water projects in Ethiopia where my friend Alimetu was born and our sponsor sister lives.
At first I thought I would be lucky to raise $200 but people have been so giving. I am setting a goal to have at least 50 people donate - if I could raise $1750 that would be enough to help bring 50 PEOPLE clean water!! Isn't that amazing?
Charity: water will show us which projects we helped fund once they're done (in about 21 months). That means we'll know which places in Ethiopia we helped.
Here's a video my Dad helped me make- check it out!

Love, Rylan

We need more kids in the world like you! Great job Rylan!
A fine young man with a big heart!
Love this project! Happy Birthday!
