| Description |
Join me on Friday, April 15th to celebrate my 26th birthday with a night of food, drinks, music, dancing, prizes, and most importantly, a little fundraising to build a fresh water well for an entire community!
A $26 donation from you will...
- Provide one person with access to clean water.
- Get you into the party w/ free food and drinks.
- Enter you into a raffle for a chance to win $1,000 worth of travel vouchers from Liberty Travel.
DONATE HERE: http://mycharitywater.org/BrianTurns26
OR... We will also be accepting donations at the door.
**PLEASE NOTE: If you cannot make it, a donation would still be greatly appreciated AND you are still entered into the $1,000 Liberty Travel raffle.**
*100% of your donation directly funds clean water projects in developing nations.*
***Why water?***
Nearly 1 billion people in the world do not have access to clean and safe drinking water. Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of diseases and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. 45,000 people will die this week alone.
In Africa, people spend 40 billion hours every year walking miles to the nearest water source, which is unprotected and likely to make them sick.
The time spent walking and the resulting diseases keep them from attending school, working and taking care of their families. It is this cycle that loops people and families into chronic poverty, preventing them from building the future of their communities.
charity: water is an organization that I believe is on the right track to helping communities break out of the cycle of chronic poverty by providing something that many of us take for granted every day; clean water.
***My Goal***
Please join me and charity: water in raising $5,000 for the development of a freshwater well. I am asking for donations of $26 or more (equivalent to a few drinks/beers at the bar). This water project will provide clean and safe drinking water to an entire community of around 50 families or 250 plus people.
Thanks again for all the past memorable birthdays and cheers to making this one the best yet!
Yours truly,
Brian James Temporosa
