Scott Harrison is the founder of Charity: Water, a non-profit organization that provides clean drinking water to developing countries. He was born in 1975 in Philadelphia and volunteered with Mercy Ships, a floating hospital, where he saw how diseases in Liberia were often caused by unsafe water. This experience led him to create Charity: Water in 2006. The organization has since funded over 13,000 water projects across Africa, Cambodia and other areas, providing millions of people with access to clean water.
