In 15 days I turn 15 years old. This year for my birthday I want my filter fund to reach he $700k mark. There is $65k to go to reach that goal. I have been fighting for clean water since I was 8 years old. gofund.me/a682750c

This moving story is so well done. A must-listen for anyone w a stake in higher education.
Part 1 of a story @lmigaki & I have been working on for ~2 years!! aired today on @MorningEdition @NPR It’s the story of Daniel Duron, who we met in a medium security prison in California, where he was getting a BA degree. A very rare thing in the US: npr.org/2022/06/21/110632085…
