    Stop... Set your phone down for a good cause.

    Hello.
    It's come to my attention that millions of children go with little to no water at all. I was told a very emotional story today, and it motivated me to do something about it. UNICEF has started a project that lets you donate water without even paying at all.

    This project, as you may have already figured out, involves that device in your hands. Putting that little piece of technology down can help give water to those who go days without a single drop. The project says that for every 15 minutes you go without touching your device, they will give 2 buckets of fresh clean water to the ones who need it.

    This may be weird coming from someone who loves technology more than the next person, but I have decided to activate this on my iPhone 6, my iPad Air, my Samsung S6 Edge, and this device. I'll be doing so for 1 hour each, and I encourage all of you to do the same. I will start after I finish this thread. If you have a PC, or you can't go without your device, I at least encourage you to donate a bit of money to the cause. Not only am I putting my devices down, I am also donating 800,000 in euros to the cause.

    Remember, many adults, children, and even babies are out there, all with a mighty thirst for water. Put down your phone, and help them out. If I, a technology eccentric individual can do it for one hour, you can do it too.

    See you all in an hour

    Not only it'll cause them, it'll cause you. To do something more productive than being on your device all the time.

    It said time donations are invalid, but you can still donate. I'd love to, but I have no money.
