Just think...
We use water everyday: to take a shower, to clean, to drink, and yes...even to flush to toilet. It's so great to not even worry about how much water we have and what's in it!

Yet this is not case for everyone. One billion people around the world don't have clean water! Numbers can be numbing, so let's bring this to a personal level.

Imagine yourself having to spend long hours and walk rigorous miles (I can barely bike thirty) with a large jug, trying to get some water that you know will make you sick. Spending so much time fetching, you have to be late for school, have to make time to take care of your family, have to give up cleaning yourself for the sake of the ones you love, having no time for yourself, having to suffer the circumstances that aren't in your control.

Unfortunately, this is the case for these people ,especially for the women and children. How can we just stand by as this goes on? Well we don't have to.

Thanks to charitywater and Water for People, we can take part in helping these people to taste and actually have clean water. As these organizations are supporting Rwanda, I ask you that you will join me in this campaign and celebrate my sixteenth birthday by funding these projects. The awesome part is that 100% of donations go directly to the clean water projects!

Please watch the short video we just made (to the right of this text) to see what your donations will do!

Yeah I'm not a girl meaning I don't get a Sweet Sixteen (nor want one), but that doesn't mean I can't celebrate my sixteenth birthday in an awesome way. My goal is to raise $500 and help out seven people receive clean water. Let's make a difference. I cannot think of any better birthday gift. Join me!
