Podcasting for Water

Water. We drink it. We bathe in it. We wash our clothes in it. We need it to grow crops.
We take it for granted, yet for nearly 1 billion people in the world clean water is a luxury. Unclean water threatens the lives of billions of people every day, but most of us reading this don’t know what life without clean water would be like. Something as simple as a public water fountain is an oddity to many people. We buy clean water in a bottle for $1 and that same dollar could give a person clean water for an entire year!
Will you join me in raising funds to provide clean water to people who desperately need it?
I will be donating 50% of my ad revenue from the podcast to Living Water International. I hope you’ll join me in giving too. If you’re a podcaster, would you consider playing this promo in your podcast? If you’re a listener, perhaps you could start a fund-raiser to benefit LWI.
For more information about Living Water International, please visit www.water.cc or www.onedollarwater.com
You can donate to my cause on Facebook which benefits LWI. All of the funds you donate will go directly to helping LWI provide clean, safe drinking water for people who desperately need it.

Every day Abana carries the ten gallon water jug to the well, stands in line, fills the jug when it is her turn, then carries it home. She has to only walk one mile each way. She used to have to walk four miles there and back again. Abana is eleven. She had a brother. He was only four when he died from drinking dirty water. That was before a well was built in their own town, before they could get clean water every day. People who cared donated money to build the well. Abana is thankful for clean water.
As I twittered, I’ll be donating $25 for water since Taylor got $100 calls for DAVe!
Bean, thanks for the love. Please remember to donate through the cause page at http://pfw.jesusgeek.info so that we can watch the thermometer rise! Thank you!
Joey, thanks for playing the promo!
