Why Erin Selip is fundraising for clean water

Last year on October 22,2017 the day after my birthday I lost my best friend Mark Corcoran. He was a thoughtful, kind, charismatic soul, and person that cared deeply about humanity. I can't think of a better way to pay tribute to his memory on my upcoming birthday this year than to do something charitable in his honor. I ask if you are able that you please help me support this cause in his name at the link below.

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.
