Hello everyone

I hope this email finds you having a good day. Thank you for all the birthday wishes and invitations to lunch. However, for my birthday this year, I have set up a clean water campaign. Instead of buying me lunch or dinner, (which I so appreciate and am thankful for), would you please consider donating $20 (or less) to charity water. Charity water digs wells around the world, providing clean water to millions of people who otherwise would have to drink murky dirty water. If you choose to give, I pray God takes your donation and uses it to bless so many people, who in turn will thank God for you.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Below is a message from the organization

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.
