Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink -- even the water in our toilets is clean!

But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. 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.

I started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me.

Please donate to my campaign -- anything you can give is a huge help.

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.

Im doing this in honor of all the places I've had the chance of traveling to within the past two decades. I've met so many incredible people, especially within the past year who I know are willing to make a difference. With this campaign, it's a little way to give back. I'm choosing $600 as my goal because that means 20 people will receive clean water (it takes about $30 for one person to receive clean water). I'm starting this exactly one month before my birthday, in hopes of being able to reach the goal.
