Scott Harrison, founder of charity: water, is a huge inspiration to me. He was kind enough to sit with me at his offices in New York City recently. The focus of the conversation was about what drove him to start charity: water and how he decided that this will be his life’s passion. The interview lasted about 20 minutes and you can see a 4 minute version below. The full interview will be summarized in the book.
Since it’s inception 3 years ago, Scott Harrison and charity: water have served more than 1 million people, with a 10 year goal of serving 100 million people – a rate of scale that is greater than any other non-profit. Learn what gets Scott out of bed in the morning and what keeps him driving forward. Hear how giving and serving have changed Scott’s life. Learn how Scott turned from a New York City night club promoter into running a non-profit and how he applies his background to his life’s work. I hope you agree that Scott’s passion is infectious and that what he and his team are doing is nothing short of remarkable. He is a hero to many, including me. I want to point out that the the organization is full of amazing people, and only begins with Scott Harrison. Scott made a point to make this point to me. Please consider spreading the word about charity: water, and perhaps starting a campaign of your own.
