In the same spirit, we looked to collaborate with a self-made multi-talented entertainer to bring awareness to the water crisis in Ghana which led us to our Water Ambassador to Ghana, Mr. Shane Dean.

‘Thirst for Water’, hosted by MC Papa Linc, will begin at 7pm with a red carpet meet and greet. Following the red carpet event, there will be a hip-hop, afrobeat and traditional music concert with a dance performance by the New York Azonto Group and a talented lineup of live performances from international artists BNice, Nana NYC, Sammy Khaki, Cojo Tee, along with gospel performances by Joceyline Baddoo, Linda Ebenezer Assembly choir and the Gospel Ambassadors with a special live performance from Shane Dean himself.
Advanced online tickets are $20 and $30 at the door. A percentage of the proceeds will support efforts to build boreholes and the development of water filtration systems for remote communities throughout Ghana. Tickets can be purchased or donations made at www.GlobalMEI.com or www.shanedean.com.

The response to the problem is very creative in getting the youth off of the streets and into more productivity with their lives from basic community service activity to rebuilding abandoned property. STVSOF realizes that it takes a smart individual to orchestrate and control the streets on an underground level. Those people are our next Malcolm X's Martin Luther Kings and Nelson Mandelas alike if detoured away from these negative circumstances. www.save-our-future-venture.com
