charity water overview

Current TV covered the Charity Water Exhibition at Sundance Film Festival. More than 1500 visited the gallery during the 5-day run, and some wept at the images and stories of those without access to clean water. Kevin Bacon, Billy Baldwin, Keri Russell, Tim Hutton and Dakota Fanning supported us, but the generosity among the Park City locals was the real story.

Having worked in this field for years, wells break and/or eventually go dry. Then what? In my opinion, Michael Pritchard's water filter that makes filthy water drinkable is a better and cheaper option. Charity:W is just a fundraising organization 3 yrs. old. No long term studies of the depletion of the water table is documented on their site. I wish they had a better strategic plan than just "donate".

Ancient Romans were able to engineer aqueducts, dams and dig wells 2,000 plus years ago. If these people can't at least catch up to technologies that are 2,000 years old then they deserve shitty water.

"In service really comes freedom...the more I was concerned about myself and how much money I could make and what things I could amass, the unhappier I became.

"And I think that's true with a lot of people. Working with the poor, working to make people's lives better who have nothing, there's nothing better to do in the world."

so true. thank you for your example...
