Today I’ve recommitted myself by setting up a &lt;a href="https://donate.charitywater.org/donate/monthly" target="_blank"&gt;recurring contribution&lt;/a&gt; to charity:water. Will you join in? &lt;a href="https://donate.charitywater.org/donate/monthly" target="_blank"&gt;Donate today&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

To date you’ve helped raise over $2,500 for clean water and in doing so helped over 300 people! I don’t know about you, but the fact that you can potentially save someone’s life for less then $9 just blows my mind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Every day, 5,000 kids under the age of 5 die from water-related illnesses.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, if you would like to help continue to help solve the water crises, please take a moment to consider a &lt;a href="https://my.charitywater.org/cf2014q3" target="_blank"&gt;small donation&lt;/a&gt;. And remember, with charity:water’s 100% model your entire donation helps to serve the people who need it!&lt;/p&gt;
