Why Rob Bye is fundraising for clean water

I'm 25 next month and every year we go for a few beers on our Birthdays spending £25+ on a few drinks, giving ourselves not much more than a hangover the next day. £25 ($35) is also the amount of money it costs to provide clean water for someone for life. I reckon that's probably a much better use of our money.

So instead of just going for a few beers, let's change 80+ peoples lives by giving them water for life!

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.

Many of us have no idea what it's like to be thirsty. We have plenty of water to drink -- even the water in our toilets is clean!

But many people around the world don’t have that luxury. Every day, about 1,400 children die from diseases caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There are simple solutions like drilled wells, spring protections and BioSand filters that help provide clean water to communities around the world.

Don't have a drink, give a drink.
