Why Joel Stanton is fundraising for clean water

It's September, and that means we're another year older -- 38 this time around. And we'd love to bring clean water to some more people again this year, so we're personally matching all donations. On top of that, other generous donors are also matching all donations, which means your donations will end up being QUADRUPLED! Crazy!!

Well, actually, doing nothing would be the crazy thing...

663 million people on this planet don’t have access to clean water. That’s 1 in 11 of us.

That means 1 out of 11 people in our world is drinking water that comes from a river, lake or muddy hole in the ground every day. Dirty, contaminated water that has leeches and debris in it. Water that causes disease, keeps kids out of school and takes hours to bring back home.

What’s not crazy is doing something to help. We joined charity: water’s September Campaign this year because we believe that every person on the planet deserves clean water, and we're looking for anyone who can help us.

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects for people in need, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.

You can give a little or you can give a lot. The craziest thing we can do is nothing.
