This year we will be six years old. We are so lucky to have lots of toys and warm clothes and healthy food and a safe place to live. We don't need anything else. We don't want more presents. So our birthday wish this year is to give children in Africa clean drinking water. Instead of gifts, we are asking for a $20 donation. All of it will be used to build wells so that children like us can have clean drinking water.

"This year when we are six years old, we don't really want more presents. We just want all the kids in Africa to have clean water so they can have a good life." -- Sofia

"The kids have to walk all that way for water? They need to build a well near their house so the family can have clean water!" -- Chase

Please join us, and thank you!

** Please note: Because of charity: water's unique model, 100% of all donations go directly to direct water project costs, and each donation is "proved" and tracked to the village it helped when projects are complete.
