“Summit on the Summit,” an MTV documentary to raise awareness of the global clean water crisis

In January of 2010, a group of celebrities, activists and water experts set out to climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise awareness of the global clean water crisis. This Wednesday April 7, you can share in their journey. 

Summit on the Summit is an MTV documentary that follows artist Kenna and his friends (including actess Jessica Biel, rapper Lupe Fiasco, and Director of Children's Safe Drinking Water Dr. Greg Allgood) as they journey from the grassy plains of Tanzania to the elusive summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Their journey is one of adventure, peril and courage as they strain to not only reach the top of one of the world's tallest mountains, but to raise awareness of the global clean water crisis. 

This Wednesday, Students of the World, UNICEF and Children's Safe Drinking Water are showing this important documentary at the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health. Join us in Rosenau Hall at 7 p.m. to watch Summit on the Summit. A question and answer session with Dr. Greg Allgood will follow the screening.
