I'm Corey from Learning Patience!
Brooke and Greg asked if I wanted to guest blog and I thought it would be the perfect moment to spread the word about something near and dear to my heart.
Clean Drinking Water
Read on and then hopefully, you can pop on over to my blog - it's a little bit of everything from my day to day in Trinidad, workout tips, delicious recipes, travel adventures and lots of great sunset pictures...
I'm sure by the time you read this blog, you've drank at least 1 glass of clean water.
Maybe two.
I bet you didn't have to walk 4 hours to get it.
You didn't have to put your cup into a dirty hole in the ground to fill it up.
It didn't make you so sick, you almost died.
Isn't funny how we take such a simple thing, like clean drinking water, for granted?
Today there are over 1 billion people in the world who don't have access to clean and safe water. They face water-bourne illness and death from dehydration.
Well Done 2011 is a project organized by Lauren from Aspiring Kennedy and and Keely from luxe + lillies to organize bloggers to donate to Charity : Water.
