When it comes to birthdays, I'm a big kid. I love my birthday, I make a big deal out of other people's birthdays. My birthday is in three weeks from today and I've been talking about it since October.
I'm the kind of person who loves gifts. Honestly, it doesn't matter what it is. A pack of gum, a hand-me-down...I get excited over anything.
But this year, I want to do something different for my birthday. Our church is very involved with Living Water International, a faith-based group that raises money to dig wells in developing countries. Every time they show a video of these kids, giddy over finally getting clean water, I cry big tears. And last week, they educated us about the fact that lack of clean water kills more people than anything else.
So this year? The best gift for me is a donation to Living Water International. All I'm asking is for one dollar from each person. You won't miss that...you know you won't. All online donations are secure.
I'm turning 34 and my goal is to raise $340 for Living Water International. Will you help me make my birthday wish come true? Please?

What a great birthday wish! I donated my dollar. Might be back to donate more, I'm going to see if the company I work for will match it since it's a non profit org.
Happy (soon-to-be) Birthday!
I think it's a great idea!!! I linked to you in a post. Here's to meeting and exceeding your birthday wish goal!!!
That's a great idea. If it took PayPal I'd donate right now...will try and remember to come back and donate when I have my debit card handy! When is your bday?
