Live without 'clutter'

LIVE without 'entertainment' will be wrapping up this week as June quickly comes to a close.

If you participated in this month's challenge, please don't forget to tally up what you lived without and make your donation here.

Looking ahead to July:

We were inspired when we heard from a group of women in Denver, CO who are preparing to hold a 'LIVE without' community garage sale (July , to raise money for clean water.*

This got us thinking; why don't we encourage each other to live without 'clutter' for the month of July?!


We all probably have things we don't need cluttering our rooms, closets, garages etc.  So why not declutter, and help give clean water at the same time?!

So how can you help?
Rally your friends and neighbors, and hold your own 'LIVE without clutter' garage sale during the month of July.
Raise additional funds for clean water by encouraging your children to set-up a bake sale or lemonade stand at the garage sale.

If holding a garage sale is not an option, consider selling some items on Craigslist or ebay and donate that money to water.  You'll be surprised at what you can get for the items sitting around your home collecting dust!

To date, the LIVE without campaign has raised almost $2000 for clean water projects,
and we are determined to hit the $5000 mark by the end of our last challenge.

 Help us make July the biggest LIVE without month yet!  Please consider joining us, and let's see how many people we can help provide clean water to by living without 'clutter.' 

 *if you live in the Denver area and have any items you would like to donate to the LIVE without clutter community garage sale, please email us at water_team@water4christmas.com.
