what you'll do
With its neon lights and cherry blossoms, ancient traditions and pop culture roots, Tokyo is THE place to be. And you just scored an epic vacation for you and three friends—plus $2,000—to find out why. Your bucket list? Consider it crushed. Because Tokyo is home to endless life-changing possibilities. Visit the Meiji Shrine, stand in awe among its 100,000 trees and write a wish on the prayer wall. Hit up an arcade in Akihabara and crush all your friends in DDR. (Was that your wish?) Or at any given moment, take advantage of some of the most delicious and creative restaurants in the world. (Be sure to try the fluffy souffle pancakes that have taken the Tokyo food scene by storm.) Throw in some karaoke, sumo wrestling and the fact that Tokyo’s hosting the 2020 Olympics, and you’ve got yourself one epic vacation. Flights and two hotel rooms included for you and three guests.

who you'll help
2.1 billion people lack access to clean water. GivePower is on a mission to change that. GivePower is a nonprofit that uses its renewable energy expertise to provide clean water, food security and light to communities in need around the world. GivePower has provided electricity access to more than 300,000 people in 17 countries, installed solar for light in over 2500 schools and ranger stations to help protect endangered wildlife. Now, GivePower is ready to build a Solar Water Farm to provide clean drinking water for up to 35,000 people every day in a community in need in Kenya. All donations from this important campaign will go to constructing this new system. Once finished, the Solar Water Farm will provide life-changing delivery of healthy drinking water to this community for decades to come.
Your donation makes an even bigger impact! GivePower will match the total amount of the net proceeds raised by Omaze donors on designated campaigns on a dollar for dollar basis up to a maximum of $275,000.
