goal
What would you do for clean water? For the 703 million people living without it, the answer is anything. And they do: they walk miles every day, in treacherous conditions and extreme heat, just to access water that makes them sick — or worse.
That’s why I’m doing this fundraiser.
My name is Matt, I’m 29 years old, and I’ve always held a deep personal belief that all people on our shared earth deserve access to life’s basic needs, including clean drinking water.
In December of 2023 as I was reflecting on the previous year of my life and developing my goals and aspirations for 2024, I felt an urge to actively prioritize making the world a better place and to help others who may have been dealt a more challenging hand in life than myself.
So, I decided to make one of my priorities for 2024 to raise $10,000 to help bring clean drinking water to the 703 million people that are currently living without it.
If it's within your financial means, I'd encourage you to support my fundraiser and help end the water crisis. Every $40 I raise will provide a lifetime of clean water to one person. Most importantly, 100% of every dollar you donate will go directly to providing the life-changing gift of clean water where it’s needed most. charity: water will even report back with details of where your money went, and how it’s helping.
Thank you for being a part of this journey!
Cheers,
Matt
