Will Shoot for Water – UPDATED

October 26, 2010


Hey guys,

On October 27, I turn 22 years old. CRAZY. Every year since I turned 13, I haven’t had a birthday party (my choice, no tears for me) or anything. Birthdays are fun time to see the family, but they’ve never been a BIG deal. I was in NO danger of appearing on My Sweet 16, or whatever the MTV show was.

But this year…this year I want it to be a BIG deal. I want my birthday to be worth thousands. But not thousands for me. Watch the video below for details…

And yes, I know I said “Will work for food” at the end. Grow up, it’ll be ok.

And I need everyone to help by posting a link to this blog post in their twitter/FB status!

So. Here’s the link to give www.mycharitywater.org/austinjwalker. Go there, check it out, see what Charity:Water is all about, and finally, give money. I’m asking that everyone donate $22 toward the campaign. EVEN IF YOU AREN’T TRYING TO GET A FAMILY SHOOT OR A WEDDING, give $22+ in honor of my birthday, or Christmas, or anything at all!

Here’s a link to more detailed information! Please read the details before you donate for the family/couple/wedding campaign. If you are just donating to donate, then go for it!

Thanks to Emma Smith for the design.
Thanks to Cameron Magee for the video footage and Jessica Fleeman for actually taking a pic of me!
