Jewel Contributes To African Water Projects

Jewel's charity, Project Clean Water, has partnered with other non-profits to launch the "Give A Drop" campaign.

The campaign, which includes support from Voss Foundation and Virgin Unite, will help with water projects in Sub-Saharan Africa.

"I am very excited that Project Clean Water has formed a partnership with the Voss Foundation and Virgin Unite to help people in need," Jewel said.

"When I was homeless, I became ill and couldn't afford to buy the bottled water I needed for my sick kidneys," the singer continued. "I realized then that it was hard to get clean drinking water in the U.S. and discovered it was a huge problem globally."

Jean Oelwang, Virgin Unite CEO said, "Virgin Unite has had the pleasure of working with Jewel for a number of years. We've been impressed by her long commitment to getting clean water to communities all over the world and are excited about this wonderful partnership with the Voss Foundation."

The Give A Drop campaign will make collections through website and text donations.
