8. Matt Damon
Like his pal, George Clooney, Damon has his sights on Africa. For the Bourne Identity star, it’s a matter of making sure people have fresh water. In 2009, Damon started water.org, aimed at promoting safe water efforts on the African continent and elsewhere. Americans don’t understand what it’s like to live someplace where the water isn’t safe to drink or even use. In some of these places, citizens have access to smartphones and the internet, but no drinking water.
