My birthday is fastly approaching......February 28th. And what I want this year is the gift of a gift. What does that mean, you ask? I would love it if this year you could help me give the gift of clean
water. 1.1 billion people in the world lack something we rarely think about...safe drinking and bathing water. I want to change the world, even if it is one person at a time. And you can help me do it.

I am asking all of my friends (and acquaintances) to give one
dollar for every year of my life towards building a well. For those
of you who know how old I am, you know what to do. And for everyone else let's just say that every penny counts!!! :) Every time I drink a glass of water or take a shower I am reminded of just how lucky I am. I want to share my good fortunes.

Join me.
