What does it take to join?

We make clear promises to all of our ambassadors: such as every donation of 30 cents delivering at least 1,000 litres of clean drinking water in developing countries. Every ambassador donates at least 1,000,000 litres per year. Of course, less is also possible, but then via online donations.

Together we decide which product, service or part of your organization you want to link to our story: one litre for one litre. This can go any direction as you can read in the many stories of our ambassadors we’re sharing here.

Of course you may count on our support in helping decide how much water is saved or used in relation to your product and service… and how much water we’ll be making available in developing counties accordingly. Curious on how that works? Find out here!

30 CENTS = 1,000 LITRES

Examples

ONE LITRE FOR ONE LITRE applied

Product

I-Team Global calculated the water savings of itsi–mop machine compared to the traditional ‘bucket and mop’ method and donates those litres to MADE BLUE.

Service

Ambius provides project landscaping for office organizations, Ambius mirrors all the water used for these services, to invest in our water projects.

Per customer

Organisation

Vreugdenhil Dairy Foods produces milk powder based on fresh Dutch milk. A lot of water is evaporated during this process, this water is made available again in countries where water is urgently needed.

How is the money spent?

ACCESS TO WATER

20 CENTS FOR WATER

20 out of every 30 Eurocents received are immediately set aside to invest in access to clean water in developing countries.

For example used to drill for water (at great depth), construct pipelines and install water tanks and taps. In all cases, we deliver clean drinking water to those places on earth where it is most needed.

ADDING MORE IMPACT

10 CENTS FOR MORE IMPACT

The remaining 10 Eurocents are being invested in creating awareness, innovation and adding even more impact it to our work. A small part is reserved for covering core costs such as administration, certification and support to our donors.

AMBASSADOR CONTRIBUTION

We support communication as much as possible so that every ambassador, large or small, can make optimal use of the power of MADE BLUE. We offer:

online communication materials (images, texts, logos);
advice and support with implementation of “one litre for one litre”;
support in communication about realized impact;
annual certificates stating the liters realized;
sub-certificates for ambassador relations;
regular updates on the generated impact elsewhere on Earth;
listing on the MADE BLUE website;

For this we ask each ambassador a fixed contribution per month on top of the 30 cents per 1000 liters. Additional costs for printed materials, custom work or, for example, externally produced videos will be charged separately.
