Bethany Joy Galeotti releases song to help Kenya release cleaner water

----

One Tree Hill's Bethany Joy Galeotti is known to us as an actress, singer, songwriter, and, director. Yet most recently it was discovered the multi-talented Galeotti can add one more title to her impressive resume, and it may just be the most important one of all. Last week Galeotti revealed to her fans on her official blog she is a sponsor to a young girl in Kenya and has been for nearly a decade through COMPASSION INTL.

On her blog, Galeotti writes about the girl she describes as a 'bright, funny, and beautiful young woman', who has become a good friend of hers' and who writes to her about the unsanitary water conditions in Kenya.

Galeotti has taken to her music to help make the water more pure for her friend and for Kenya. She has released a song called “Shiver'” in hopes of raising funds to improve the poor water situation in Kenya. Galeotti asked her fans to donate $1.99, the cost to purchase a song on iTunes, to one of three organizations working towards cleaner and healthier water in Kenya.

It was just announced this week that Galeotti has been nominated for two 2010 Teen Choice Awards. Safe to say who the teens in Kenya would vote as their choice favorite!

To donate to the organizations helping to improve the water in Kenya-
The Kenya Water Wells Trust & The Foundation for Sustainable Development
