At school, I did a project about clean water, trying to convince my classmates to help the cause of charity water. I felt so emotional seeing all these children dying right now and decided to do something about it. In a video, I watched the walk the girls and women took to get the water. I saw them walking for hours and hours at a time, only to get back with their buckets full, to go back again. It made me feel sad and pitiful.

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. You can donate, fundraise, and even buy things with money that will go towards the donation.

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.

Water is all around us. We use it for almost everything. The least thing we can do is to not waste the water we have been lucky to have. The second thing we can do is help children and adults all around the world to have clean water. How do you do it? By donating money to my campaign.

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.
