Ethiopia Well Celebration
Share
A story about the profound impact of Charity Water's work, as witnessed during a trip to Ethiopia with Scott Harrison.
"When I went to Ethiopia with you and we went to one of the schools where a well had been built, literally when we were coming in I was like 'Are the Beatles behind us?' What is this giant crowd? The whole town was lined up. Scott is like Jesus to them - there were signs with your name.
Of course there should be because of the impact. For somebody who works on the internet, I'm sitting here in my box office right now doing a podcast - we live a pretty charmed life. We get to do things that are pretty easy in the grand history of the world. I think it's pretty easy to be disconnected from reality and what's going on for billions of people out there."
Note: This story was told by Shaan Puri to Scott Harrison, describing his experience seeing the impact of Charity Water's work firsthand in Ethiopia.
