A bottle that gives back :)

GiveMeTap is a platform that focuses on sustainability and access to clean water. Its main objective is to reduce the use of disposable plastic bottles by offering a network of places where people can refill their water bottles for free. In addition, for every bottle they sell, they contribute to projects that provide access to clean water in communities in need, with a focus on Africa. In Africa alone, some 115 people die every hour from diseases related to poor sanitation, lack of hygiene and contaminated water.

It is an initiative that combines environmental awareness with social responsibility.

GiveMeTap was initially funded through a crowdfunding campaign, via The UpEffect Platform https://www.theupeffect.com/. This strategy allowed them to raise funds to launch their project and raise awareness about the importance of access to clean water. Crowdfunding campaigns are an excellent way to engage the community and gain support for initiatives with a positive social impact.

Nowadays GiveMeTap is funded primarily through the sale of its reusable bottles.  The idea is simple but powerful - every time someone buys a bottle; part of the proceeds goes to fund clean water access projects in communities in need. In addition, they are able to receive support through partnerships with businesses and donations, which helps them maintain and expand their network of refill points. Their business model is designed to be sustainable while making a positive impact on the environment and people's lives.
