Conscious Choice: Volvic Spring Water
Clean drinking water is plentiful in the United States, but in Africa more than 300 million people lack access to it.

To help tackle
this crisis, Volvic has partnered with the U.S.
Fund for UNICEF to plan a $2 million wellbuilding
program in Kenya. The wells will
generate 7.5 billion liters of clean water for
ten years-enough to supply 100,000 people.
Over the next three years, sales of Volvic
spring water (which is sourced from the
Clairvic Spring in France) will help fund the
construction and maintenance of the wells;
Volvic estimates that each liter you buy will
translate into ten liters of fresh water for
an African community. Look for the "Drink 1
Give 10" label while shopping at retailers
nationwide. Stay updated on the program's
