Why H & Mimi Heffinger is fundraising for clean water

You wanna talk about crazy?

663 million people on this planet don’t have access to clean water. That’s 1 in 11 of us!

That means 1 out of 11 people in our world is drinking water that comes from a river, lake or muddy hole in the ground every day. Dirty, contaminated water that has leeches and debris in it. Water that causes disease, keeps kids out of school and takes hours to bring back home.

What’s NOT crazy is doing something to help. I joined charity: water’s September Campaign this year because I believe that every person on the planet deserves clean water, and I’m looking for anyone who can help me.

I've decided to put my skills to work to ensure that more people can drink clean water. For each donation of at least $40, your name will go in a hat for a raffle of a custom wigwam with a guaranteed Christmas delivery complete with leather lacing and feathers. Also, the highest donation will receive their own custom wigwam. The only thing you'll need to provide will be the poles, which are available at Home Depot - I'll provide the measurements and instructions. The drawing will be held on November 1st. For more images check out my Instagram account: https://instagram.com/mkheffinger

100% of the money will be used to build clean water projects for people in need, and when they’re complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the exact community we helped.

You can give a little or you can give a lot. The craziest thing we can do is nothing.
