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 that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

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.

Instead of gifts for Jake's birthday, please consider donating to this campaign for clean water. Our goal is to raise $1000 in order to help 33 people and children get clean water because Jake is turning 3! We can't imagine what we would have done without having the basic necessity of clean water when Jake came into the world, and no parent should have to have that worry.

We hope you will join us in our efforts to bring clean water to the world on behalf of Jake!
