Meet Lory

Charity Water as you probably realize by now is all about raising not only money but awareness for building wells in Africa. About a month ago they launched a video that has gone viral.

In this video we have the privilege to meet a child by the name of Lory. He just turned six years old. Instead of asking for new action figures or toys of the like, Lory asked that everyone donate six dollars in order to help people in Rwanda. His campaign raised 2,386 dollars. Talk about incredible.

This video is great because of the different camera angles that the videographer used to bring the point across. I think one of my favorite scenes though throughout the course of the entire video is where we see children drinking the clean water and enjoying it. Seeing the joy on their faces is one of the main reasons why I am so adamant about making sure these people get clean water.

I believe in Charity Water so much that I am going to commit to having everyone donate twenty dollars in my name come time for my birthday in October.
