Her goal was to raise $4,000 to have 2 wells built there so the communities could receive fresh, clean water. She just sent me a note on Facebook telling me that, with the help of many, many generous people,\u00a0 the goal was just met. Yipeee!<\/p>\n<p>But the story doesn&#8217;t end there.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->I was happy and selfishly sad about the goal being met because I had yet to make <em>my<\/em>\u00a0 donation.\u00a0 And I wanted to contribute! Soooo.. Amy said that if more money is raised, of course more wells can be built!<\/p>\n<p>I have no doubt we can band together and raise another $2,000 to build another well.<\/p>\n<p>I just started well number 3 off with a $250 donation. Anyone care to join me? We&#8217;ve only got $1,775 to go and every contribution makes a difference!<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to donate or learn more, please click over to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.momadvice.com\/post\/happy-birthday-momadvice-a-well-of-hope-for-burkina-faso\" target=\"_blank\">MomAdvice 10th Anniversary page<\/a> to see why Amy chose this charity and (hopefully) make a donation yourself.<\/p>\n<p><em>(PS That&#8217;s Amy up there in the top left photo.
