Why James Carleton is fundraising for clean water

Every day, 1,400 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses. Let's help change that!

You amazing people raised $812 for water in Ethiopia and Rwanda for my previous birthdays. This year lets add another $500 to bring life changing clean water.

100% OF DONATIONS FUND WATER PROJECTS. Thats right, none of it goes to overhead, it all goes to the water project.

Why I started doing this:
So I was at an email marketing conference listening to numerous speakers go on about how to connect with customers, when something completely unexpected happened.

Scott Harrison, founder of Charity:Water told us about the amazing shift his life took. He went from a successful indulgent nightclub promoter, to a dedicated, compassionate leader working tirelessly for the benefit of people across the planet.

After hearing the passion in his voice, and the huge impact that a simple resource like water can have on the quality of life of so many people, I had to get involved.

PLEASE instead of buying any gifts, send the same amount or more to a water project. 100% of your donation goes to the water projects! You can see the results of my previous birthdays:
