Why Kestrel Detweiler is fundraising for clean water

There are 800 million people in the world living without access to clean water. Let's change that!

It's my birthday again! I love birthdays and celebrations and this year I want to celebrate another year of life by helping provide life to other people, by giving them a chance to have clean water! Millions of people around the world do not have access to clean drinking water, and we can change this. I love Jesus with all my heart and a reflection of this is by loving the people around the world, and one way to do this is to show love by giving them a chance at life, by giving them clean water.

I'm asking for my age in dollars from everyone I know. Every penny of the money raised will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. 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 know the locations and names of the communities we helped.

Help me reach my goal. Please donate to my birthday campaign!
