John Wood took a vacation to Nepal to relieve stress from his job at Microsoft. While trekking, he came across a small school that had very few books for students. He collected over 1,000 books from friends and family to donate. This experience inspired him to write a book and start Room to Read, a non-profit that has provided books and opened libraries for over 10 million children. Scott Harrison used to work as a party promoter but quit to volunteer on a floating hospital. The poverty he witnessed inspired him to start Charity: Water to provide clean drinking water. Charity: Water has raised over $100 million to fund 8,000 water projects serving over 3 million people in 20 countries.

Article edited - charity water review
Scott Harrison was formerly a nightclub promoter who lived a selfish lifestyle until witnessing extreme poverty during volunteer work in South America. This experience inspired him to found the charity: water organization, which has raised $10 million to provide clean water access to nearly 1 million people. Harrison ensures donations directly fund projects by having committed donors cover administrative costs. He also shows donors the specific impact of their contributions by providing photos and GPS coordinates of funded wells. Additionally, Harrison leverages new media like Twitter to raise awareness and funds, helping frame giving as a joyous experience rather than making people feel guilty.

- 2. John Wood’s Story John Wood was overworked at his job at Microsoft. So he took a vacation at Nepal to relieve stress. As he was trekking, he came across a small school. Talking to the teacher he realized that there were barely any books which students there could use. After promising to return to with more books, Mr Wood started collecting book donations from his family and friends. He managed to collect around a thousand books for the school.
- 3. John Wood’s Story He later wrote a book, ’leaving Microsoft to change the World’,about his experience of collecting books for the school. The book became well-known and he earned 3 million dollars with which he started ‘Room To Read’, a global non- profit organization which focuses on literacy and gender equality in education. ‘Room to Read’ has reached to around 10 million children, opened over 12 000 libraries and 1500 schools
- 4. Scott Harrison’s Story Mr Harrison used to work as a party promoter but quit as he felt like he was living selfishly . He decided to sign up for volunteer service aboard a floating hospital with a group called Mercy Ships, the people living in poverty he met and his fellow colleagues caused him to have a change in his perspective of the world.
- 5. Scott Harrison’s Story During his experience at Mercy Ships, Mr Harrison realized that 60% of the diseases that were faced by people were due to lack of clean water. Hence, he returned to New York to start ‘Charity:Water’ to provide people with clean water. ‘Charity: water’ has raised over $100 million and funded over 8,000 water projects in 20 countries. When completed, those projects will provide over three million people with clean, safe drinking water.
