goal
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.

Happy Birthday. Everyone should have clean water.

This week, I had the honor of meeting Scott Harrison, founder of charitywater.org. Seeing what he's done, broke my heart at first and then inspired me. Today - the day of my birthday - 4500 children will die from water-ill related diseases. In fact there are 663 million people that do not have access to drinkable water. Since God has blessed me with everything we need, I'm asking that instead of any gifts, any cakes, any cards, you donate AT LEAST $20. I'm hoping to raise $3000 in total, which will give 100 people permanent access to clean water. Please, if you really want to make me happy today, take 5 minutes and your credit card out and help this worthwhile cause that is changing lives in Latin America, Africa and other parts of the world. Thank you so much!
