Story

<p>Just Add Water is about making a difference... At the start of 2011 I decided that I wanted to set myself a challenge, not just a personal challenge but one that would make a difference.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I decided that I would spend a year just drinking water... no tea, no coffee, no fizzy drinks, no beer. &nbsp;Just water for an entire year. &nbsp;I reckon that each month I spend around &pound;40-50 on buying something to drink and given that water is free, I'm donating &pound;50 a month to Kid's Alive who help to provide water filters for families in places of desperate need.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>A water filter costs approximately &pound;25 and I would love to raise enough money to provide enough filters for 100 families. &nbsp;Alongside my monthly donations, I'll be doing one off fundraising events, donating any financial gifts I receive for speaking at youth events and hoping that generous people like you will help to make this dream a reality!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Please dig deep and help to support this very worthwhile cause!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Jonny</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>For more information please check out:&nbsp;http://www.kidsaliveuk.org/</p>
