Why JB Burgess is fundraising for clean water

Dad loved everything about water. He loved living around it. Swimming in it. Walking in it. Floating on it. And of course, throwing a dry fly over it.

He was inspired by the work of charity: water when he experienced it up close and personal early this year. And proud of John and Lynn for supporting the organization's work.

Last Christmas, he experienced great joy watching his grandsons learn something about the problem (of unclean water), and observing the interest they took in seeing how their small contribution to charity: water would make a positive difference in other children's lives.

(thoughts from Lynn)

What we appreciate about this idea...
Thanks for all who join the effort...

Together we can make a difference in the lives of many. Dad would like that.
