The African Well Fund began collecting donations for the eighth annual Build a Well for Bono's Birthday, a 50-day fundraiser, on March 22 to raise $50,000 to fund a clean water and sanitation project in the Buhera district of Zimbabwe. To give as many fans as possible the opportunity to take part in this fundraiser, and add their birthday wishes to Bono on a card that will be sent to Principle Management, AWF will continue to accept donations through May 15.

Struck by the enormous difference that a well can make in the life of a village, we were convinced that raising the money to build a well was an easily achievable goal...'
