703,000,000 PEOPLE
1 in 10 people spend hours collecting water every day. Can you imagine? As a result, many women and children do not have time to work or go to school. This way they remain poor generation after generation.
That’s not even mentioning the lives lost due to polluted water. Fortunately, there are solutions: for just €2.50 we can provide one person with water for a year.

My children can now drink water safely
“I fetched water until the day I gave birth. It took me all day to do. Now it only takes me half an hour.”
Foundation
Made Blue Foundation
We have been working on worldwide access to clean drinking water since 2014. We collaborate with over 500 companies who actively support and contribute to our mission. We call those companies our ambassadors.
As an entrepreneurial foundation, we opt for a collaborative approach rather than collecting funds. We aim to establish long-term partnerships with companies, ensuring mutual benefit for all parties involved. This is the right way to add sustainable value.
Our meter reading
17,050,329,976 LITRES
We have already achieved so much clean drinking water in developing countries and that has more impact than you think:
Women have time to work again and children can go to school, giving them a better chance of a better life later. People no longer have to cut down trees to boil dirty water and it is no longer necessary to buy disposable bottles.
