Every year Americans spend $15 billion on bottled water. Did you know that $1 can provide clean drinking water for an African person for an entire year? The Luxury Fund asks people to use some of their “luxury money” to help change the lives of those around the world who suffer from great poverty, disease, and injustice.

Here’s how it works: Today, you could decide to skip your cup of coffee at the local coffee shop, and rather than running your check card for $3 at the coffee shop, you could contribute a small $3 to the Luxury Fund. That money is distributed among four charities who are helping to end poverty (Blood Water Mission, Compassion International, International Justice Mission, Love 146). It’s an easy way to make a small sacrifice while making a huge impact around the world that can literally save lives.
