Maya's Water for Kids Campaign

Maya Funk

My name is Maya Funk and I am a 10 year-old living in California. I want to help kids living in poor countries get access to fresh water to keep them healthy and able to go to school.

It broke my heart when I read that every 20 seconds, a child dies from a water-related disease and that diarrhea remains the second leading cause of death of children under the age of five. It's so sad.

Thank you to everyone who gave to my campaign! We already made more than the original goal of $1,000.

I set a new goal of $1,500 so we can help more kids!

For only $25 Water.org can get someone safe water for life. Co-founded by Matt Damon, Water.org has been helping people get sustainable solutions for over twenty years.

Thank You,

Maya
