Did you know 771 million people around the world don't have access to clean drinking water? On today's episode, Kimberly sits down with CEO of Charity Water, Scott Harrison, to discuss his story, the goal of Charity Water, and how you can help make a difference.

Today's Guest: Scott Harrison, CEO of Charity Water
Scott Harrison was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and grew up in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. Harrison began working as a nightclub and party promoter in Manhattan. He spent the next 10 years organizing parties for the likes of MTV, VH1, Bacardi and Elle. In August 2004, after a mysterious illness, he declared spiritual, moral and emotional bankruptcy.  He quit his job and volunteered as a photojournalist for the Christian charity Mercy Ships, which operates a fleet of hospital ships offering free healthcare, being inspired by his father’s gift of A.W. Tozer’s book, “The Pursuit of God”.

During his two years with Mercy Ships, Harrison was exposed to the conditions of the impoverished in Liberia, and he witnessed the effects of dirty water firsthand. As a response, Harrison founded Charity Water in 2006. The charity is a non profit organization that works to bring clean water to people in developing nations through its use of public donations, which directly fund water projects such as building wells and sanitation facilities.
