Friends and Family,

As you all may already know, I am a Daddy to 2 wonderful and healthy kids. They are my world, and all of you who have kids can relate to all the wonderful emotions our kids make us feel. Even when they get a little out of hand, we still love them. And it's that Love that drives us to do well by their side and to provide for them so that they can live a nice life.

Thanks to the huge help I get from their mom, my kids have more than what they can ask for. We are so blessed to live in a place where we can provide everything we want for our kids, as long as we work hard for it.

But that's not the case everywhere. In some places, no matter how hard you work, you still wont be able to properly provide food and shelter for your kids. and there are still even worse places to live than this. Places where water isn't even accessible. Places where kids dont even make it past the age of 5.

Every 90 seconds a child dies from a water-related disease. Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of death worldwide for children 5 and under . And we are talking about millions and millions of kids, who dont stand a change at life because of the lack of water. Everywhere, innocent kids are dying at a fast rate, non-stop. It is alarming that we are already in 2016 and that we are still losing almost 1,000 kids per day due to this water crisis.

The water problem is real, and its enormous, but solutions are out there. Its been proven that Kids with access to safe water are obviously healthier, thus making it easier to attend school regularly, and live a more normal life.

Fortunately, There are a lot of worthy charities out there, full of people who are willing to donate their time and money to real issues like this one. All worthy people, and all worthy causes. But as a father, the one cause i really needed to get involved with was this one. I want to help save other father's children. That is why I chose to colaborate with actor Matt Damon and his awesome organization Water.org, because I believe in this great cause.

The water crisis is Real. But it is something I feel we can help solve, alongside all the great people at Water.org and all of the donors everywhere.

I myself am doniting my time as well as merchandise to this wonderful cause. I have a growing online retail store, which i have linked to Water.org. I will be donating hand-made silver and stone bead bracelets ($25 vaule) to anyone who donates $10 or more to this cause.

For every $25 that we raise at Water.org, we can give someone access to safe water, for Life!

Water.org has been helping people develop sustainable solutions for more than 25 years. thats 25 years of helping keep people alive.

We were all created Equal, but not with equal opportunities. Some of us have had a pretty smooth ride, while other struggle to stay alive.

But Together, we can help keep humanity alive, and help those in greater need than our own.

Let's be Human.
