I’m giving up my birthday!

  • http://mycharitywater.org/Patrick


    Very soon I will have my 35th birthday.  Tonight I was on the phone talking to my Mom and Dad and they asked me what I would like for my birthday… (Flashback to being 12 again!).  I really couldn’t think of anything that I wanted or even needed.  If anything I have always been the person that if their birthday just came and went with nothing more than i decent meal I would be completely happy.

    That’s when I stumbled across mycharitywater.org.  This has to be the coolest idea!  You can give up your (insert special occasion here) to raise money that will provide for clean drinking water to people in developing nations.

    So this year I am giving up my birthday in the hopes that we can raise $5,000 that will give clean water to 250 people!  So if you would have given me a gift for my birthday, please donate to help us reach our goal.  It is also my hope that me giving up my birthday would be the catalyst for others that would not normally give me a birthday gift (or maybe don’t even know me) to donate to help this goal become a reality.

    After all, we live in an amazing country that provides so much opportunity that other nations couldn’t even fathom.  Even in our current economy we have so much to be grateful for.  Take a moment to visit this site and learn more about this amazing cause.

    I sincerely hope that you will make a donation.  After all… it is my Birthday.
