Global Water Challenge is the non-profit beneficiary of U.S. Run For Water events.

Not every musician is willing to take the stage before Noon. But for a good cause, Live Earth supporters will go a long way.

Rob Thomas performed Sunday morning April 18th at Atlanta's World of Coca-Cola following the 6K Dow Live Earth Run for Water Atlanta. Like all U.S. events, the Atlanta Run for Water benefits Global Water Challenge and included an educational water village including efforts from local nonprofit the Chattahoochee Riverkeeper.
