Why Sydnee Blackmon is fundraising for clean water

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink, to cook with, to bathe in -- 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.

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.

My wish is for every person to donate the amount equivalent to your age (If you feel lead to give more than please do). I believe it is the least we can do since we spend more than that on things of less importance.

I believe it is our duty (as God's children) to not just continue living life oblivious to the suffering around us. Enough with the excuses.
