"If you are going to ask yourself life-changing questions..."

I don't subscribe to cable television, so I don't watch a whole lot of television. It isn't much of a surprise, then, that I totally missed out on an MTV documentary that aired last week called "Summit on the Summit." The premise? Kenna (actually a pretty great musician) and some famous friends of his, climb Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise awareness of the global clean water crisis. Check out the trailer below:




Guess what? We're not the only ones concerned about the clean water crisis. This is a global movement. A movement of compassion toward those with less. A movement to makes the lives of people better. Guess what else? We've already made a tangible impact. With the donations received so far, Charity:Water will be able to provide clean, safe drinking water to 90 people for years to come. Think about that.

We've put our thoughts, prayers, energy, and passion for providing life-giving water to yield a tangible result. Where would we be if everyone did that?
"If you are going to ask yourself life-changing questions, be sure to do something with the answers."

  2. One of my favorite blogs is whatgives365.wordpress.com. The author is donating $100 a day to a different charity using her inheritance from her father. Today Betty wrote about World Water Day and ways to help with the water crisis.
