Matt Damon has dedicated the last decade to tackling the water and sanitation crisis globally. In 2006, he founded the H20 Africa Foundation, which later merged with another organization to become Water.org. Through its innovative financing models and focus on sustainable solutions, Water.org has brought clean water and sanitation to over 6 million people. Damon recently served as executive producer on Bending the Arc, a new film about the inspiring story of a global healthcare movement that started in Haiti. This event will be followed by a film screening of Bending the Arc with Producer and Writer Cori Shepherd Stern.
