More than a decade ago, Shine 104.9 (KEEH-FM) began their partnership with Water for Life, a charity local to Spokane, Washington, that works to build wells in Guatemala.
Water for Life, founded by Gary and Rod Bartholomew, originally started as a group of volunteers that wanted to provide uncontaminated water for an Adventist orphanage and school in Guatemala. It has since grown into an organized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
