You all have totally exceeded my expectations of how much would be raised! I didn't think I'd make it to the first goal! Here's a mini timeline of when each goal was met!

1.09.12 reached first goal of $500
1.18.12 reached $1000

**************
I never usually know what I want for my birthday. But this year, I know! Instead of buying me something I most likely don't need, I'm hoping you will donate here instead. It also being my 21st birthday, I'm asking you to not buy me a drink but to give a drink for someone across the world.

There are people in developing nations who walk hours each day to collect dirty and contaminated water for their families. People drink this water, hoping to live.

Even if its just a few bucks, it'd mean a lot to me and even more to the people who will one day have clean water. 100% of all donations go to build freshwater projects for people in developing countries. Definitely worth your time to check out www.charitywater.org to see what the non-profit is about and what their mission is.

What's super cool is in about 18 months after this campaign ends, charity: water will show us (on Google Maps!) where and what the money raised went to.

Thanks for stopping by! & for giving a drink for someone who needs it more!
