Every day, 1,400 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. Let's help change that!

My birthday is around the corner. I would never ask for presents as I'm fortunate to live a pleasant life. But as last year I like to ask my friends to donate to charity: water and give clean water to people who need it, instead of giving me gifts.

Did you know that 748 million people on the planet don’t have access to clean drinking water? Every day, 1,400 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.

As a father I don't want to accept that thousands of kids die every day because we aren't willing to provide them clean drinking water. So, let's start and change that. Help me make this birthday my best ever by beating the 672 Dollars we raised last year - donate to my campaign!

Thanks for helping and spreading the love,
Henning
