Clean Water
First, watch this:
The story of charity: water – The 2009 September Campaign Trailer from charity: water on Vimeo.
CATHY ZIELSKE is doing a campaign.
Because I was so inspired I immediately went and signed up to run a clean water fund-raising campaign. Why? Because I have you and I have this blog and I am insanely lucky to have a platform to talk about anything. Period.
And I got to thinking of it like this: what if 1,000 of my readers, rather than giving up what they might get for their birthdays, took just 5 dollars that they might spend on products for a few scrapbook pages and gave it to charity: water? That comes out to $5,000. And $5,000 will fund one fresh water, life-giving well for a community in a developing nation, enhancing both the quality and safety of the lives of those who live there.
Five bucks. 100 percent going to the goal of clean and safe drinking water. 100 percent tax deductible.
My challenge to you? Give up what you might spend on a few layouts and raise a glass to clean water.
You can donate via my campaign page which is here. And, you can learn more about how the funds provide a range of water solutions in developing countries here.
