About this user
Thirsty Planet was launched in 2007 because as bottled water producers (and good ones too!) we wanted to 'give something back'. We knew we couldn't solve a global problem single-handedly but we wanted to try and make a real difference.
We partnered with Pump Aid (because they are the best at what they do!) and created a brand whose sole purpose was to raise money towards water projects in the most disadvantaged parts of Africa. These are the parts of Africa where people die drinking from contaminated water sources, the parts where children can't attend school because they have to walk miles to collect water, the parts where communities are malnourished because they haven't water to grow crops.
In only four years we've raised over £1.4 million which has helped fund the build and maintainance of thousands of pumps, giving millions of people access to more than 300 billion litres of clean water! Incredible but true.
Thirsty Planet spring water is as pure as you can get, with a perfect mineral balance. If consumers can enjoy our water and contribute to Pump Aid what could be simpler?
We think knowing you are doing something amazing makes our water taste even better.
