Why Eric VanWinkle is fundraising for clean water

The number one ingredient for the existence of life is liquid water...H2O.

We flip a handle or push a button and there it is - clean water. For some off us the tap is not good enough we feel the need to spend extra on designer bottles of water while millions suffer beyond our comprehension.

Millions of women and children have to walk hours each day to get water from muddy ponds and rivers. And much of that water is infested with parasites and leeches. In fact, 80% of all diseases in the world are caused by unsafe drinking water and lack of sanitation.

$20 given to charity:water, could put clean safe drinking water in the bottle of baby in a developing country for 20 years.

When I learned that only $20 can give someone clean, safe water for two decades, I decided to start a campaign to help. My goal is to raise $5,000.00. $5,000.00 will build a well in a community providing generations with clean safe water. WATER IS LIFE.

100% of the money raised in my campaign will be used for digging the well. Once the well project is finished all contributors will receive the GPS coordinates to the well and be able to see it on GoogleEarth. That is awesome!

Together, we can make a dent in the global water crisis. I hope you'll consider helping.

Please help me raise funds to dig this well,
and may grace and peace be yours in abundance.
