Fatima Water Project Update

Thanks to all of you who celebrated my birthday (like 5 months ago) by donating to the Fatima water project. You'll be glad to know that I just got an update from them, and the water is now flowing! It's clean, it's crisp, and it comes right up to the spigots in their yards.

They still need about $1,000 to reach their $8,000 goal, so there's still time to give if you'd like. But, even the $7,000 they've already collected goes a looooooong way to reducing the huge loan they might never have been able to repay.

You guys are the best birthday present givers ever. Thanks!

What's next on the horizon? The community is working towards electricity. Read more here.
