Why Taylor Collins is fundraising for clean water

Every day, 1,400 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. Let's help change that!

Hey guys, my birthday is around the corner (May 19th) and I have a small request! I'm not usually excited about getting older, but this year I'm so grateful to have lived another happy, healthy year. I recently learned that millions of kids around the world don't live to see their fifth birthday because they don't have access to clean, safe drinking water.

We can help change that.

Instead of giving me gifts, I'm asking for my age in dollars ($25) from everyone I know. Every penny of the money donated will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they have been fully completed (which takes about 21 months). That means we'll know the exact locations and names of the communities we helped!

Help me make this birthday one to remember -- please donate to my campaign!
