When Adam and Sir Christopher Chataway visited Ethiopia they signed up another member to Team VWP. Double Olympic champion Haile Gebrselassie agreed to wear a light blue ribbon on his vest in the name of Vicky's Water Project when he attempts to break the world marathon record in Berlin on September 30.

As a child, Gebrselassie had no running water in the village where he grew up and in this film he talks about why he's happy to support Vicky's Water Project.

  • Geb,

    Bless you for devoting your time, resources & energy for the good of the common man.

    While I believe helping starving Ethiopians to over come adversity is CERTAINLY one of NOBLEST mission to carry out, watching Ethiopians shop for arms & wage ENDLESS WARS is one of the most incredible scenarios to believe.

    Therefore, Ethiopians NEED to be told to stop wars before any one coming to help make radical effect for their well-being.

    Geb, Thank you for your sacrifices.

  • I Love This Guy!!! He is the best!

  • Haile is a great citizen of this world.

  • u da man geb

  • Geb.......what a guy.....
