goal
It's time to turn ugly sweaters into clean and safe drinking water...again.
In 2013, I became very sick from contaminated food or water while working in India.
The importance of having clean and safe drinking water was never more clear to me than during that trip. That's why I'm asking all my friends and family to donate to charity: water and give clean water to people who need it, instead of giving me gifts.
Every day, 1,400 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.
I have a fundraising goal of $1,500 for this party. With your help, we can reach and even pass this goal!
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 this birthday my best ever -- donate to my campaign!
