Why Lynne Foote is fundraising for clean water

On September 7th, I'm turning 52. And this year, I don't want presents or drinks. I want clean water.

In February, I went to Ethiopia with charity: water and I was impressed once again by both by the integrity and the dedication of this organization and their partners on the ground. The urgency of the clean water issue and how much it affects people just like me and my family was never clearer than during this trip.

I've probably asked you to donate to one of my birthday campaigns in the past, but once again I'm asking you to consider giving $5, $10, $52, or $520 dollars, whatever you can, to help this year's campaign in Rwanda.

Please take three minutes to watch the video - I guarantee you will be inspired.

Remember: 100% of the money we raise will directly fund water projects in the Rwanda, and when those projects are complete, charity: water will send us photos and GPS coordinates so we can see the impact we made. I can't think of a better birthday gift. Join me!
