Summary

Scott is the founder of charity: water, a non-profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries - you may have heard me mention them before, and that’s because I’m deeply passionate about their cause and a huge admirer of what Scott’s done as the founder of the org. In less than a decade, their community has raised over $250 million to fund 22,000+ projects that have brought clean water to more than 7 million people around the world.

For those who want to support charity: water, you can join The Spring here, or pledge your birthday here.

Today on the podcast,

* Scott's AMAZING life story- how he turned his back on his career as one of NYC's best club promoters to found cw
* He unpacks several of cw’s signature campaigns like their “donate your birthday” initiative
* The moment he realized that his identity as a human was inexorably tied to the performance of his company + how he dealt with it

Enjoy!
