Walk to the Water: African Well Fund

This year marks the 6th annual "Build a Well For Bono's Birthday" fundraiser. Started online in 2003, the yearly drive to honor the inspiration Bono has given us has raised over $100,000 USD in the past five years. The drive runs until 5/10/2008 (Bono's 48th bday).

This year the theme is Walk to the Water inspired by the U2 Joshua Tree b-side from the 1980's.

You can find out all the info here, including how to donate. As always, we thank you for your support.

This year's project will go to support clean water projects in the Gokwe region of Zimbabwe. More info on that later.

It's big news here in LA. I don't know anyone directly affected, but I can say I'm going to miss my Curb and Bill Maher!
