Julia's 40th Birthday

Julia
Donate

For the past few years, I've donated $1 per birthday wish to one of my favorite charities. This year, I'm taking it one step farther by initiating an official fundraiser.

Imagine if you had to walk a few miles instead of a few feet for a glass of water. This is the reality for millions of women and children. Collectively, women and children spend more than 140 million hours every day walking and collecting water for domestic use. When women and children gain access to water they are healthier and have more time for education, work and raising their families.

For every $25 that I raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water. 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.

Please help me celebrate my 40th birthday by giving safe water to 40 (or more!) people.
