Hi everyone. I've been feeling like birthdays aren't quite as much fun as I get older as they were when I was little. This year, I wanted to do something I could get excited about, and you get the added bonus of not having to figure out what you want to get me for my big day. Water! That's what I want--read on...

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. Every penny of the money raised will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 18 months). That means we'll know the locations and names of the communities we helped.

Help me reach my goal. Please donate to my birthday campaign!
