A Child's Right.
This organization provides potable water through the installation of water purification systems in various countries. In May 2007, they went to Xiushan SWI, which is the orphanage our daughter is living in. Take a look at the photos on the website. They are amazing! (A BIG thanks to Johnny for tipping me off to this).
I am not big on fate and all that jazz. But as some of you know, I am an environmental economist that studies drinking water quality issues and I had a fellowship at the US EPA, in the Office of Groundwater and Drinking Water, working on three water quality regulations (Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, Stage 2 Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Groundwater Rule). I am grateful to this organization as a global citizen, as an environmental professional, and most of all as a mother.
Please consider making a donation in memory or on behalf of someone you love.
We just did. Guess whose honor we made it in?!
And now, back to our regularly scheduled silly programming (maybe it's time for SK to post?)

It's kinda bizzaro and subduing to realize that up this point, your child was drinking what we won't brush our teeth with. And then, suddenly one day, they have something we take for granted in their every day meals.
Good things done by good people.
