On June 23rd I'm turning 30.
Yup, you heard right.
I AM TURNING 30!
I'm not scared of 30 at all and I know my youth is over despite what society has told me over and over. On the contrary, I know this year is going to be one of new beginnings and new adventures.
So I figured what better way to start off this turning point in my life than providing people with fresh, clean drinking water. I've set a goal of raising $600 dollars which will provide clean water for 30 people in developing countries.
Almost a billion people in the world are living without clean water -- but how much are they really living? Millions contract deadly diseases from contaminated water. 30,000 people will die this week alone. The lucky ones won't, but still have to walk hours each day to get dirty water for their families.
The best part: 100% of all donations go directly toward water projects. And about 18 months after this campaign ends, charity: water will show us where and how every dollar we raised ended up helping in the field. We'll see GPS coordinates, photos and more details about the communities we've impacted.
I don't need gifts, but people need water. I have already donated my age so we're already on the way.
Please join me and give a gift that people need to survive and will never forget.
Happy Birthday man!! God Bless
Dave, I'm so happy you are doing this. Happy Birthday!
Love you, Dave!!! Happy Birthday.
Happy Birthday Davey!! You have such a generous, caring heart - we love you so much! Xo B. & N.
Happy Birthday!! We love you. Carling, Mark and Avery
