WHY WATER
Clean Water for All
Clean water changes what is possible in a day, in a body, in a family. Access to clean water is foundational to health, dignity, and life itself.
The need is still real:
2.1 billion people still lacked safely managed drinking water services (latest global estimates).
703 million people lacked at least basic drinking water services (global estimates for 2022).
A portion of proceeds from JOIE DE VY supports clean water projects in under-resourced communities, helping fund sustainable water systems through trusted partners.
We believe care should ripple outward. What nourishes us can also nourish the world.
Purchase with A Purpose, Clean Water Partnership
A portion of proceeds from the Purpose with A Purpose Project supports charity: water and their mission to help bring clean and safe drinking water to communities around the world.
