Why Ellesha Wanigasekera is fundraising for clean water

Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. 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 gave up my birthday for the cause and it was, without a doubt, THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER. For the rest of my life, I will hold dear the knowledge that I was able to bring clean water to at least 35 people.

There is still time before this campaign ends, and I want to get clean water to as many people as possible.

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

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