This past February, I had the great pleasure of traveling to Northern Ethiopia with charity: water.

For one week I drove, hiked, breathed, watched, learned, played, and most importantly, met. I met people deep in villages, far off the beaten path. I will never forget how little these people had (food, water, material possessions...pairs of shoes), AND how much joy danced in their eyes.

For almost 1 year I have spent most of my waking hours thinking about water. Now, after seeing solutions in action, I sure think about the importance of what the cw team does in the office every day to bring clean water to people who don't have it.

My heart swells thinking about my community coming together to change the lives of others by providing another community across the world with one of life's most basic needs. There is literally nothing I want more on this day.

$5,000 is the average cost to build a water point in a village...

My gym teacher at Mesa View Middle School, Mr. Wind, used to always say, "GO BIG, OR GO HOME." This goal is for you Mr. W!!

Fondly,
Lindsay
