ASCAP writers Brandy Clark, Matt Jenkins, Shane McAnally, Josh Osborne, Matt Ramsey, Jimmy Robbins, and Trevor Rosen held an in-the-round last Friday night at the Listening Room to help raise funds for WaterHope, a nonprofit created to raise money for communities around the globe who don’t have access to clean drinking water.

The charity began when founders Steve and Tracy Tomkovicz were approached by a visiting missionary for help in building a water well in Uganda. WaterHope began as a single annual fundraising event in the Napa Valley called Wine to Water. As the event gained momentum it was able to raise enough funds to meet the water needs of the Ugandan mission. WaterHope has a presence in eight countries on two continents and events are supported by donors and sponsors, and executed by a 100 percent volunteer staff. To find out more about WaterHope, visit waterhope.org.
