instead of a birthday drink with me, let's share the clean, hydrating wealth with others!
Hiya guys!
My 25th birthday is just around the corner, and I've been celebrating all month Hobbit-style by doing good deeds and small things to give back, but now it's time to break out the big guns. I don't usually ask for presents, but after my buddy Katie launched her own charity : water campaign earlier this year, I've been inspired to make an exception. I'm asking you, my friends and family, to donate to charity: water and give clean water to people who need it. So, instead of sharing a celebratory birthday brew or two with me, donate the $5 a beer would cost you towards this charity : water campaign!
Did you know that almost a billion people on the planet don't have access to clean drinking water? Every day, 2,200 kids die from water-related illnesses before they reach their fifth birthday. 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.
100% of every dollar you donate to my birthday campaign will be used to build clean water projects in developing countries. charity: water funds their operating costs separately through a group of private donors, so 100% of all public donations will go directly to people in need.
Help me make my 25th a big deal -- donate to my campaign!
Cheers,
MEJ
