Adam Lambert's 30th birthday
wish is for his fans to help him change the world.
“Today is my birthday, and for my
30th I'd like you all to help me change the world,”
Lambert tweeted to his more than 1.3 million followers on Sunday
along with a link to charity:water, the nonprofit dedicated to
bringing clean water to thousands of people around the world.
“Last year for my 'golden birthday,'
you gave me the best birthday present I could have asked for – you
donated $323,803 to bring clean water to over 16,000 people!”
Lambert is quoted as saying on his donation
page. “It felt so amazing to have my fans, friends and family
do something so inspiring for my birthday.”
“I've been asked what I would like
people to do this year for my 30th birthday. I'd like to
invite you to join me and 'give up' your birthday this year.”
Giving up a birthday means asking
people to donate to charity:water in lieu of gifts.
Lambert added that he is hoping to
raise $1 million for the charity.
