My name is in Africa on a drilling rig

do you remember this? 

and this?

i was lucky enough to be part of the team that raised awareness and money for charity: water's september campaign 2011. i'm really passionate about this non-profit and i loved helping them meet their goal of buying the yellow thunder- this drilling rig that digs 80 clean water wells a year in ethiopia, africa- that's over 40,000 people who now have access to clean, germ-free water.

they sent me pictures of the rig in action this week and i've been on cloud nine over their amazing progress. i'm so grateful to be a part of this life-changing project!

thanks to everyone who read my blog and supported this non-profit!
