Mary Esposito's 22nd Birthday Fundraising Page
Help Fund a Water Project
My twenty-second birthday is near approaching and I have decided what I want for my birthday is for friends and family members to donate to my 2 week challenge! So for two weeks instead of drinking soda, juice, tea, bottled water, etc. drink water from your tap; then save that money, add it up and donate it to my page. Through this website you can explore and learn more about the water project. After learning about this program, I realized that I have been so blessed to have running water pretty much where ever I go. Washing dishes the other night I thought about how simple it was for me to have steaming, hot water to clean the dishes with one second, and then fresh, cold water a split second later to get a drink.
It is a privilege to be able to have this running, clean water, and I believe we should help those who do not have this necessity of water.
Why It Matters
Did you know nearly 1 billion people don't have safe water to drink?
Together, we can change that. Let's fund a new source of drinking water for those who suffer needlessly without it!
Our gifts will be used to construct or rehabilitate a water project, like a well or sand dam, in Africa. We'll see pictures, GPS coordinates, and updates as they come in from the actual water project we fund so we can celebrate the results along with the community we help.
