The Christian season of Lent is upon us. A traditional way of entering this season is to give up something that can help bring to mind the sacrifice Jesus made for you. My sacrifice this year is to give up all liquids except for water. I do enjoy a glass of wine, and of course I work at a coffee shop, but during the 40 days of lent I will be abstaining from these pleasures. All the money I would have spent on alcohol, coffee, tea, etc., I will donate to this wonderful cause. I will drink only water in order to raise more awareness to the availability of clean water around the world. Help me out!
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.
