Why Eva Ting is fundraising for clean water

It's almost September...which means two things for me:
1) My birthday!
2) Giving up my birthday to raise money for charity:water

For the last couple of years, I've been asking friends and family to donate money to charity:water in lieu of gifts. Let's face it - I already have way too much stuff. And now that I'm living in a "cozy" space in NYC, there is even less room for storage.

I'm also doing this because charity:water is doing amazing work, bringing clean water and transforming communities in Africa in every aspect from health to education. Community life is richer, all because families now have access to clean, safe water.

This year, charity:water is focusing their efforts on purchasing a drilling rig fleet that will increase their impact exponentially. And for my birthday, I would love nothing more than to support their efforts.

I'm so grateful for all the blessings and good gifts in my life. So for my birthday, please - no presents, no drinks, no dinners out. Let's channel our resources for a greater good.

Please help me celebrate what charity:water is doing by donating to my birthday fund! Thank you. :)

Love,
Eva

    Happy Birthday Eva!
    I figure the day has come and gone, so I might as well round up to 34...
    I expect you will need to come to Boston soon to visit some museums and stuff, strictly business/school related.
    Look forward to seeing you soon.
