“If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.” – Loran Eisely

It’s 3: 13 PM on day 3103 since I started blogging and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse  and create and promote my 28 For 28 Campaign benefiting charity:water – thanks to Gaynor and B, Marco, Stan Faryna and Marisa who’ve all made donations so far which brings the total raised to $174 of $28 000

This morning I started 28 For 28 – a fundraising campaign benefiting  charity: water, a non-profit organization bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing countries – because I believe that when we give people access to clean water  we give more than water because clean water gives health, an opportunity at an education and most importantly  access to clean water gives people  back the priceless gift of time (the time women spend collecting water they can spend with their families, starting a business or even going back to school).  . My goal is to raise $28 000 for charity : water in honour of my 28th year of life. For more information about my 28 For 28 Campaign log on to https://my.charitywater.org/nisha-varghese/28-for-28   to make a donation  and use #28For28  when tweeting about this campaign.
