    An admired group of Celtic and Folk musicians have donated tracks to assist Wells for Zoe, an Irish-based privately-funded development organization, founded for the purpose of helping the local population of Northern Malawi in accessing fresh water and creating a sustainable living environment.
    Putting their motto, "A hand up, not a hand-out" into practice, the founders of Ireland-based privately-funded development organization Wells for Zoë, John and Mary Coyne (parents of tenor banjo player Éamonn Coyne), have assembled a top-notch collection of Celtic and Folk musicians. The organization was founded to aid the local population of Northern Malawi in accessing fresh water and creating a sustainable living environment.
