Every day, 5,000 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. But you can provide clean water.

Almost a billion people don’t have access to clean drinking water. Every day, 5,000 children die from water-related illnesses before they reach their fifth birthday. But you can provide clean water. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

I'll turn 26 this year and am asking for contributions of $26 to charity: water to give clean water to people who need it. If the goal amount for the "Shave It" campaign of $1,600 is reached and has raised more funds by March 29th than my "Save It" campaign, I will shave off my 16 month old beard, but don't worry, you can "Save It" by contributing here!

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 my 26th birthday be more than a date on the calendar. Thank-you for your generosity.

Love God, Love Others, Make Disciples
