This is what Team Ethiopia WILL be doing! *Video Update* Re:Well?????


Twestival Drill Day 4 - Well Complete from charity: water in Ethiopia from charity: water on Vimeo.

Is it me or do we actually look alike???? I think we look alike! LOVE THAT!

So, here's the deal Team Ethiopia. The numbers are in as of today.


I'm taking a vote - Do you want to know the number as of today, or do you want more stupid videos (by me) to keep pushing through other resources until we reach our second well??

****Edited version - no voting, it's been decided, we're going for TWO****

Did you know, most companies will MATCH any donation you give. Ask your employer if they do, that could really boost our numbers.

I love all of your efforts. You've done an AMAZING job. EVERY single one of you who have donated will save lives. Go Team Ethiopia! Don't forget, these are not my wells, they're OUR WELLS. And everyone on the team will be getting something to signify our team effort within the next month, or after we reach our goal! ;)

    Lori, You don't know me, but I love your blog and have enjoyed following the story of your adoption from Ethiopia. I hope to have a similar story to share sometime soon! My husband and I are inspired by you -we are in the process of starting (?) an Ethiopian adoption and I have showed my husband several of your posts to give him perspective (and show him how cute your little girl is!) I am so happy to be able to donate to Charity Water - I just made my donation and am so happy for the success you have had with your project!!! Congratulations and thank you for sharing your story and inspiring me!
    P.S. As I type this comment I am wearing my "Twilight" tshirt and thought you would appreciate knowing that we have that in common as well! - Deena Marquis, Wisconsin
