About a billion people on the planet don’t have access to clean drinking water, but TakePart and the Thirst Project are looking to change that.  In this exclusive TakePart TV video Charisma explains how you can help combat the global water crisis.

Charisma is a supporter of the Thirst Project, an organization that builds wells in third world countries so that communities in need can have access to clean drinking water.  Charisma attended the Thirst Gala and worked with the organization and TakePart.com to promote the cause and drive awareness to the subscriber drive through which TakePart donated money to purchase a $12,000 well in Swaziland.
