My 28th birthday is almost here (Nov 26th)! It's been such an exciting year and I'd love to kick off the next with restarting my favorite birthday tradition: helping raise money for Charity:water's clean water initiatives.

Although my 27th birthday benefited other charities, my 25th, 26th, and now my 28th are all Charity:water campaigns, and I'm hoping to beat my previous years' fundraising and reach my goal this time. And I'd love your help in doing so.

I'm still getting updates from Charity:water about my previous campaigns, and you will receive updates too—as they as happen—if you donate. I'm not looking for presents or a celebratory drink, just to do this for those who have no been as lucky as I am.

Help me reach my goal. Please donate to my birthday campaign!

Sam

PS. Thank you to a sweet and kind lady named Morgan Claytor, who inspired me years ago to do this.

PPS. Here's more from Charity:water:
Every penny of the money raised will directly fund clean water projects in developing countries. Even better, charity: water will show us exactly which projects you funded once they've been fully completed (which takes about 18 months). That means you'll know the locations and names of the communities you helped.
