We are dedicating Jackson's 1st birthday as a fundraiser to support charity: water’s mission of providing clean water to communities around the world. Every moment is a teachable one and we strive to instill values of loving God and neighbor through kindness and acts of giving by setting this example. We also hope that Jackson will be able to look back at this milestone birthday, recognize the impact of collaboration, and be inspired to live with a generous spirit. Thank you, Jon & Tabitha

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. This fundraising campaign will help charity: water build these types of projects around the world, and I'm looking for anyone who can help me.

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.
