Help bring clean water to thousands FOR FREE!!!!

This could be the most important blog post I ever write. I am praying it is the most well read!

How can we give thousands of people all over the world clean water for free? Well, it isn't free- but it can be free, NO COST for us to help make it happen!

My friend, TJ Foltz, has started an organization called humankind water.




The idea is simple- sell bottled water and give all of the net profits to building wells and filtration systems, etc. to give those in need clean water. TJ is not doing this to create a business or a job for himself- He already has a job. He is just doing it to help people all over the world- to do as Jesus said to do- giving a cup (or a well) of water to 'the least of these.'

So- how can we help? He has entered a contest with walmart. If he gets the most votes, walmart will put his bottled water on their shelves. It is that simple and that easy! Obviously, just being on Walmart shelves will be a huge revenue- estimate is 1 million dollars of revenue!!!

All I am asking you to do is:
1.Spread the word- post this on your blog, your internet groups and your facebook page! Tweet it, text it, talk about it!!!


2. VOTE - starting March 7th and through April 3rd. Go to humankindwater.org and vote!
It is completely within the rules of the contest to vote over and over and each and every day!

I have made it my goal to find 100 people who will commit to vote 10 times a day each day of the contest. This will take all of 2 minutes out of your day and could mean clean water for thousands!!!!!

Won't you please help me meet my goal?
Won't you please help them receive clean water???

Go to the website:
http://humankindwater.org/


watch the video.
sign up for the emails- they are NEVER asking for money- just for your help spreading the word and voting!

Ladies, this is something WE can do to make a difference! This is something our children can do to make a difference! Let's get the whole Diabetes Online Community involved!

People are having 'voting parties' !!! The experts have told TJ they need 1 million votes! We need to spread this message to every network we have and we need everyone to help. But, it really isn't that huge of a commitment for each one of us- IF we all help! Please help spread the word, please vote!

And I'd love to know if I can reach my goal of bringing 100 people to the vote- so will you please comment and tell me if you will commit to 10 votes a day?

thanks!!
Susie

Hi Susie! Cool idea. I'll pass the word once voting starts on the 7th.

I'm so glad Carol is doing better. That was so scary to read.

We're coming up on Matthew's 2 year mark as well. We had a big celebration last year---because he had been such a trooper. We went to Great Wolf Lodge.

This year? He's hoping for GWL again. LOL! Not gonna happen! But we'll probably let him enjoy a big milkshake!!
