Where the idea came from

The Well
The Dirty Water

One fine day Ryan's teacher told his class about Africa. Some people in Africa didn't have clean water to drink and they had to drink yucky water. That gave Ryan the idea to earn money by doing chores so that he could build a well to help people get clear water to drink. His teach said it was $70. So he earned $70 and he went to the company to give it money. The company said it wasn't enough-- it was $2000! His spirits were sinking. His mom said, "Are you going to stop?" Ryan said, "No I am going to keep going." So after a while he earned $2000. He went back to the company and gave them the money. HOO-RAY! Ryan did it! That is why I want to earn money.

I want to raise money to build some wells and make the world a better place!
