Jars of Clay, multi-GRAMMY winning and platinum-selling Christian rock band, will use their new album as a platform to provide clean water for Africans in need.
Known for its humanitarian organisation Blood:Water Mission, the group hopes to raise at least $300,000 (£160,064) for clean water projects in Africa with the help of sales from its Good Monsters CD.
According to the United Nations, over 300 million people in Africa lack access to safe drinking water and 477 million people live without adequate sanitation facilities.
As part of the effort, The Global Water Challenge with support from The Coca-Cola Company, will provide a matching donation of up to $100,000 (£53,346) to the band's Blood:Water Mission. The partnership will donate $1.00 for each of the first 100,000 copies of Good Monsters sold. Funds raised will go toward the provision of clean water in Africa.
