I was introduced to Charity: Water by Geremu's parents, and then saw this video about it this week. Even if you don't know Geremu (trust me, if you knew Geremu, you'd want to give him a birthday gift- he's an awesome kid), consider giving $2 (or more) to this organization. They are doing great work in East Africa and are currently raising money to bring water to communities in need in Ethiopia.

Did you know that the amount of water an American uses in 2-3 minutes a day is more than the average Africans' daily supply? I don't say this to make you feel guilty- please shower, do your laundry, flush your toilet, and wash your hands. I say this for you to realize that our water supply is a blessing and privilege, something that many people do not have, and something we should not take for granted. And like all blessings we have, I think we should stop from time to time and think about these blessings, and how we can give back and make a difference. $2 sounds like a good place to start.
