I am immensely grateful to turn 20 in a couple of days, for 20 happy and healthy years, in addition to being raised in a developed nation where access to water has never been a concern. But many of our brothers and sisters 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. It costs charity: water only $30 to bring lifelong access to water for people that do not have access.

Rather than giving me presents, please donate to the charity: water 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.
