Why Jeflyn J Gilman is fundraising for clean water

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.

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.

    Turning forty was difficult for me. I’m not sure why, my age has never bothered me before. I thought instead of dwelling on it, why not do something positive with the fabulous number 40. I’m challenging my friends and family to help me raise money $1,225 to give CLEAN water to 40 people in need. Water is something we take for granted...we have water within arms reach nearly all day, yet there are people in this world who have to travel to far places to get water that may or may not be safe to drink. Please think on, pray on whether this is something that you are willing to support. This charity gives 100% of donations to the cause. Thank you in advance!
