Running a 5K at the Sarasota Spring Fest

Todd Jonsef

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.

I know there are a lot of worthy charities out there. I’ve created my own fundraiser for Water.org because I believe safe water is necessary for life. The water crisis is something I feel I can help solve. I hope you agree by giving whatever amount you can to support my efforts.

For every $25 that I raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water for life. Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org has been helping people develop sustainable solutions for more than 20 years. Together, we can change lives with safe water.

I will be running a 5K race wearing the water.org running T-shirt. I hope that this will inspire others. I am an adult full time student who returned back to school to better my families life. I can also better another's life through water.org. Please support water.org with a donation before the 1st of March, 2014. The race starts in the early AM on the 1st of March. I will be thinking of the women who travel to get their water. Water is life, no water, no life.
