Episode Summary
On this episode I meet Finley, a young changemaker from Frankfurt International School. Despite living in a place that has easy access to safe, clean water, Finley became connected with this important global issue through reading an amazing book by Linda Sue Park and listening to Nantume and Nkoba share their work on the Empathy to Impact podcast. Through the support of his family and a school program that nurtures young changemakers, Finley has been able to turn his passion for safe, clean water into a global collaboration that is impacting the lives of entire villages and the families living there.
