In conjunction with the „Welthungerhilfe“ (World Hunger Aid) Viva con Agua is involved in three federal districts in northern India. The project is aimed at improving water availability for the residents and thus increasing the medicals and economic situation of the people. The donated money will be used to build drinking water, sanitary and irrigation facilities.

The „Takamine” guitar is a follow up model of the „NP15“, Glen played in the music film „Once” and is since then known to be the „hardest working guitar in show business“.
 
This charity action starts on the 21st of December 2012 and expires on the 28th of February 2013.
