In 2006, with no money and less than no experience, Harrison founded charity: water. Today, his organization has raised over $400 million to bring clean drinking water to more than 10 million people around the globe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThirst\u003c\/i\u003e, Harrison recounts the twists and turns that built charity: water into one of the most trusted and admired nonprofits in the world.
