Why Megan Johnsen is fundraising for clean water

My 24TH birthday is April 9th, and I want to give (at leeeeeast) 24 people access to clean drinking water. Clean water to some of the 663 million people around the world who don't have it.

I heard Scott Harrison, the founder of charity: water, speak at a conference and was left heartbroken and with a sense of urgency to do something. So, I'm "pledging my birthday" to charity:water.

If 30 people donate $24, then 24 people will get access to clean water.

But I want to blow the goal out of the WATER (see what I did there:)) so donate and give what you can. This is an issue we can all get behind, big or small.

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.

Seriously, check out charity:water for yourself! And give. Please.

WATER CHANGES EVERYTHING.
And the craziest thing we can do is nothing.
