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.

Chas and I started this fundraising campaign to help charity: water build these types of projects around the world. And since we both really like bacteria and disease-free water a lot (including our beloved sparkling water), we thought that we’d help give it to others.

Instead of giving and accepting gifts for Christmas this year, we have decided to go this route. If you can’t stand to not give us anything because you love us so incredibly much (duh!), gift-giving is your love language, or you have a gigantic mound of money that your hoarding away under your mattress, then you can give with us here.

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.

Hope you've learned something and are inspired to help someone (whether it be here or somewhere else!).

Love,
Chas and Kinsey
