goal
There are 800 million people in the world living without access to clean water. Let's change that!
This year, I'm giving my birthday up for Charity:water
I'm turning 31 years old(!) and instead of asking for gifts, I'm asking for $31, $310, or more from everyone I know.
Almost a billion people in the world are living without clean water -- but how much are they really living? Millions contract deadly diseases from contaminated water. 30,000 people will die this week alone. The lucky ones won't, but still have to walk hours each day to get dirty water for their families.
My birthday wish this year is not for more gifts I don't need; it's to give clean and safe drinking water to some of the billion people living without it. I want to make my birthday matter this year.
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.
Happy Birthday, Kurt!
Happy Birthday man!
Raise $3100 For My Birthday!
