Why Ben Berry is fundraising for clean water

On September 20th, I turned 33.

At first, this seemed surreal, even frightening.

But then I found out that millions of people don't live to see their fifth birthdays. And why? Because they don't have access to clean, safe water.

So I'm not worried about age or dying anymore. In fact, I'm celebrating my birthdays and everyday like never before.

I'm asking for $33 from everyone I know -- and every penny of the money raised will go directly to fund clean water projects in developing nations. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects we funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 18 months). That means we'll be able to see the communities we've helped!

My goal is to raise $1,000 by the start of December.

Please join me to make someone see their next birthday!
