According to CNN.com, on average, the U.S. spends $18.6 billion on Valentine's Day each year. That breaks down to about $130 a person.
Around the world, 780 million men, women and children need access to safe water. This negatively impacts their health, keeps children from attending school, and traps millions of people in a cycle of poverty. This all changes when solutions to access safe water are implemented.
For every $25 that we raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water for life.
For less than 1/5 of your Valentine's Day spending, you can give someone the gift of a second chance at life. Please help us send love around the world. Thanks.
