* Arlene * helps shelters for abused women and children.

Rachel Beckwith of Bellevue, Washington didn't want presents for her ninth birthday on June 12 -- no Bieber posters, no necklace-making kits, none of that. In lieu of birthday gifts, Rachel asked that her friends and family donate to a charity that provides clean water to children in developing countries.
