I feel that I am a truly blessed individual. There is not really much that I want for. So, I decided instead of receiving a bunch of gifts that, yes, I would probably love, but not really need, I would use my birthday to help others who are really in need.

Nearly 1 Billion people live without clean drinking water. More people die from lack of clean water and sanitation each year than are killed by all forms of violence, including war.

Charity Water believes that everyone should have the right to clean safe drinking water. Since, 2006 Charity Water has helped MILLIONS in 19 different countries gain access to clean drinking water.

Please watch the video provided and it will explain a lot better than I can just how much Charity Water does to help those who are faced with diseases and death. So this year for my birthday my wish is not for presents but for water. I've set a goal for $1000 and I am asking you to help make my 21st birthday the best ever by helping reach my goal and provide clean water to those who are without.
