Why Margaret Teague is fundraising for clean water

America spends around $500 billion dollars each year on Christmas gifts, that comes out to more than $600 per person. We also spend another $8 billion on decorating for Christmas. This year, let's give the gift of water to people who are desperately in need of it. It is hard to believe that more than a billion people are living without water on our planet. Some walk miles every singles day to the nearest source: a parasite-infested stream. They then have to lug it back to their families. The water is not even clean in the first place, resulting in them suffering from preventable diseases. A shocking 45,000 people die each day from waterborne illnesses.
My mission is to raise $125 by Christmas this year. 100% of every penny raised will go directly to the water projects.
One billion people, one cause, this is the time to give. In the United States we have the resources, let's use our power for the better! Don't forget to watch the video posted below. Whether $1 or $100 is donated, together we are changing the world!
