CannedWater4Kids, a 501c3 non-profit charity is an organization focused on bringing clean, safe water to children worldwide. Ensuring access to safe, clean water worldwide is critical. Not only is it essential for successful agriculture, food and energy production, it is a children’s issue because water is vital for healthy development and survival. By tapping into the global can industry, clean water, packaged in aluminum cans, will become their symbol and billboard for spreading the word while developing strong grassroots awareness and participation. The aluminum can was selected because it is safe, readily available, sustainable (recyclable) and economical. Product sponsors and individual donors will provide the funds & resources necessary to drive the program.
Their plan is to support certified clean water initiatives world-wide. Whether supporting the digging of wells, water filtration programs, or clean water education, their donations will go to where they think it will do the most good. All money collected by CannedWater4Kids will go towards helping to bring clean, safe water to children everywhere.
