Why Kian is fundraising for clean water

Wow, this past year was crazy and memorable. I hope you are off to a fine start in this new year. As I get older and hopefully wiser, it's time I ask you for help to bring clean drinking water to strangers who lack access to this simple yet essential resource.

This is the 5th year in a row that I've chosen to celebrate my birthday by pledging it to this cause and I'm hoping through the use of Charity:water Teams, I can inspire you to join me in not only donating to this worthy project, but also pledging your birthday as well!

Same as previous years, I ask for an amount equal to my age if you can afford it. The ideal scenario is for more people donating relavitely small amounts. My goal has always been to double the number of donors while increasing the amount by $1 annually. This year I'm hoping to gain the support of 160 people each donating $29 which would raise $4,640 and result in clean drinking water for 154 individuals in need!

If we have lost touch over the past year, please say hello (kianonline@gmail.com) as I'd love to hear from you. I thank you for taking the time to look at this and hope you seriously consider joining me if you haven't done so already.

My sincere thanks,
Kian

Below is the only part of the boilerplate text from the good folks at Charity:water which I find crtitical to leave in:

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