Clean Water for Everyone!

For the month of May Green Earth Organics is turning blue to join the Clean Water for Everyone Project!

We’re partnering with Shannon Cluff, owner of Sanga Yoga Studio and wife of Green Earth owner Daniel Henry, to help bring clean water to people in need.

100% of the donation will fund clean water projects through CHARITY:WATER, a non-profit organization that brings clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries.

Once the project is complete CHARITY:WATER will send photos and GPS coordinates so we’ll be able to see the impact we made!

It’s as simple as following this link and donating. Remember that each dollar counts!

Why water?

Health and Sanitation

Diseases from unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war.

Women and Children

In Africa alone, people spend 40 billion hours every year walking for water. Women and children usually bear the burden of water collection, walking miles to the nearest source, which is unprotected and likely contaminated.
