    Hey everyone! Have you ever counted how much money you spend on beer or alcohol in a weeks time? It adds up right? That is, unless you're a lightweight like me! I am challenging all of my friends to go sober for ONE week. A little crazy, I know. "Yvette! Don't mess with MAH BEER!" I'm ready to receive the backlash for this. But it's all for a good cause! This campaign is for people who don't have beer to drink... or clean water. Because of poor sanitation, many people get sick from their water sources around the world. This is your chance to help them out! By being a Sober-Sally for week, SAVING the money you would spend on beer, and donating it instead, lives could be saved. Are you up for the challenge?
    Some would say that the average spending rate on alcohol is about $45 a week. If it be more, no judgements here! Hopefully this can even help us get more mindful of our spending habits and force us monitor our finances. Here's a link to a survey of spending averages: http://thefinancialdiet.com/11-people-tell-us-much-spend-alcohol-per-week/
    The BEST way to do this challenge is to drink a normal week away and KEEP TABS on your spending. But of course, party it up. Add it up, and when the next week starts, donate the amount you spent, but don't drink that week! If you already know your expenses, that's cool too.

    Can't take the challenge? Donate whatever you want because every bit helps. 100% of the proceeds go to charity: water.
