Birthdays are about celebrating another year on this planet. And I usually get gifts every year, but what does the planet get? What do the others, not so fortunate get out of these gifts we get??

I decided to give up my very first birthday, and give ALL gifts to charity only. Accepting no presents, whatsoever.

I am asking for a small donation of anything, $25, $10. If you can, possibly even more. ALL OF IT is going to build freshwater projects for people in developing countries.

My birthday wish this year is not for gifts I dont need, its to give clean water to 250 people every day from a well they dig because of you, my friends.

I met the founder of Charitywater - Scott Harrison, and he was a great guy, the story of building this really struck me and I really believe this.

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.

Please join me!! To show I am really serious, I started off with a $ 1000 donation.
