Carlson Young and John Karna, stars of the MTV series “Scream,” along with Isabella Innis, whose brother is in the band Foster the People, share how a 12-year-old boy in Uganda named George changed their lives. A chance meeting with George who was near death, struggling with typhoid fever contracted from unclean drinking water, sparked a life-long friendship and a journey to provide water to an entire village. After connecting with World Vision and fundraising online the group traveled to Uganda in 2016 to experience the joy of George and his community receiving clean water for the first time.
