Why Grace Na is fundraising for clean water

Every day, 2,200 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. Let's help change that!

Hi Friends,

I think it's been a while since you've last heard from me. Two birthdays ago, I refused to shower while I was sweating in Dominica until you helped me raise $1500, and that money was sent to Ethiopia to help bring clean water to the Zikuya school and the surrounding community of 1054 people! For my 27th birthday, I've decided to do something a little harder. If you know me at all, you must know that I love to eat anything and everything. So, I won't be eating until you help me raise $2,000. I know it's not much in light of the water crises, but I do need a humble reminder of reality today:

Almost a billion people on the planet don't have access to clean drinking water. Every day, 2,200 kids die from water-related illnesses before they reach their fifth birthday. 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.

100% of every dollar you donate to my birthday campaign will be used to build clean water projects in developing countries. charity: water funds their operating costs separately through a group of private donors, so 100% of all public donations will go directly to people in need.

I'm currently finishing my surgical rotation in LA where I am standing in the OR for many hours of the day. Let me eat my birthday cake this Wednesday so that I don't pass out while I'm holding a patient's leg! Thanks friends!
