Why Sharon Tan is fundraising for clean water

Hey friends!

By the grace of God, I've learned and grown so much in these beautiful 22 years! I have everything I need and really couldn't ask for more. Instead of receiving this year for my 22nd birthday, I wanted to GIVE toward building water wells in developing countries and it would be fabulous if you guys could give with me!

Instead of getting me a gift or only thinking warm thoughts for me (haha), I want to invite you guys to set aside a gift of at least $22 dollars toward providing access to clean water through Charity Water. It's quite easy to lean toward taking simple comforts in life for granted, such as simply being able to wash our hands or take a shower. In reality, clean, accessible water is NOT available for everyone and the water available for some families is often already contaminated. We can easily change that for a family or community if we actively choose to contribute what can make a HUGE difference!

My campaign goal is at least $1,000, which will provide water to 50 people, or 10 families. I really want to encourage you to consider what you could give up $22 worth of to set aside for clean water for a community, and to freely give as cheerful givers, just as you have received! We are also called to be good stewards of what we have been blessed with, and I want to encourage you to consider as much as you feel you are called to give. Through Charity Water, 100% of all donations go directly to direct water projects costs, and each donation is "proved" and tracked to the village it helped when projects are complete and photos and GPS coordinates are posted using Google Earth..

Thanks yall! Wishing you guys tons of happiness and lots of love :)

Sharon
