charity: water is something near and dear to my heart. They help people out that are without clean water and give them a chance to live healthy lives by building clean water wells. Something so simple that every developed country takes for granted each and every day. We don’t even think about life without clean water. They deserve it, too. Do something about it.

Well, we’ve been wanting to sponsor a kid from Compassion International for a while and here he is. [..]

A child dies every three seconds in Africa. Today, 30,000 children will die from poverty. With all the stupid little things that we worry about from day to day and with all the money we have at our fingertips, why the hell can’t we help them out in some way? And now some of you are more concerned about the fact that I just said “hell” than about the 30,000 kids who die every day in Africa. And that’s the sad truth.
