Why Tara Ericson is fundraising for clean water

A group of families in the Roswell, GA area started this fundraising campaign to help raise $10,000 for charity: water's amazing projects around the world. Our goal is two fold:
1. Raise money to help bring much needed clean water to families around the world.

2. Participate in activities that will help us raise children who have a heart for helping others.

We invite you to grab a neighbor, friend, family members or co-workers and come up with creative and fun ways to raise money for this awesome charity. Please post your creative fundraising activities on this page.

In part 1 of our fundraising we raised $750! We have $9250 to go!

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.

Please donate to our 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.

    This is a fantastic opportunity to gather family and friends to work together to help others in need! Let’s focus on “family friendly” fundraising so our children and friends can all participate and benefit from the joy of helping others. Please share your activities so we can borrow ideas from each other!
