goal
I'm on a year long journey to raise $4,000 for charity: water in honor of my year end 40th birthday. We are half way there and have already raised $2,252 and have impacted the lives of 74 individuals in developing countries!
Last summer, I had the privilege of hearing Scott Harrison speak. His messaged moved me: we have power as individuals. We can affect change just by trying. And just because the worlds' problems are big (enormous) doesn't mean we shouldn't be putting in the work to change them.
"Do not be afraid of work that has no end."
I bawled.
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.

Thank you to everyone that has donated to the campaign so far! For many of you, these donations have been in place of being able to attend the party. I just want you to know how much I truly appreciate your willingness to give while receiving nothing back in return. That's how the world becomes a better place for all of us to live in. Much love and gratitude to you all.
