Such prolific philanthropist that he parodied himself on Entourage,
Matt Damon
has recently focused much of his energy on clean water. One group he
co-founded, H2O Africa,
has been confronting that continent's ongoing crisis.
Another Damon project, Water.org, combines web 2.0 savvy,
micro-loans and
star power into global, action-focused movement that is
digging wells, safeguarding
supplies and advocating for justice around the
world, especially in distressed regions like Haiti.
