Why Jiří Sekera is fundraising for clean water

For 30 years I every day brush my teeth, take a shower, pour flowers and wash my mugs with drinking water.

Did you know that almost a billion people on the planet don’t have access to clean drinking water? Every day, 5,000 kids die from water-related illnesses before they reach their fifth birthday. 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.

My birthday is around the corner and since I don't like to recieve presents I don’t even ask for any — I’m asking all my friends and family to donate to charity: water and give clean water to people who need it, instead of giving me gifts.

100% of every dollar you donate to my birthday campaign will be used to build clean water projects in developing countries. charity: water funds their operating costs separately through a group of private donors, so 100% of all public donations will go directly to people in need.

Want to make me happy? Help me to make my 30th birthday a meaningful one!

(31st day + 3rd month) × 30 years = $1020
$1020 = access to clean water for 51 people!
