Episode notes

"I remember standing near her grave, just as little pile of rocks behind a small church and thinking to myself, you know, everybody agrees. 13 year old girl should not be hanging themselves because they spilled water," she says. "And man, Helen was this radiant 65-year-old Ugandan woman who waited her whole life to have her dignity restored through something as simple as clean water" She adds: "Knowing we've been able to make that possible for 100,000 or so villages is what animates us."

Scott Harrison is the founder and CEO of charity: water, a non-profit with the mission of bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing countries.

Top 3 Value Bombs:

1. Build a brand that is not shame-based or guilt-based, that invited people to bring the best of themselves, to bring their time and money in the service of others.

2. We are now down to 771 million humans without clean water. That is from 1 in 6 people alive to 1 in 10 people alive.

3. If you were born in a village without water, your life is so different.
