goal
I’m turning *something something* years old on December 7 and would really like to make this birthday meaningful!
“Thirsty" has come to mean, well, someone like me, haha. But not having access to water is no joke.
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.

As of today, this campaign has DOUBLED its original goal. An estimated 20 people will get clean water! What a fitting way to end 2020. Thank you all so much for your kindness and generosity - I can’t even tell you what it means to me.

with love, and so much goodness.
