💧 Every drop counts 💧
Freshwater is on a mission to inspire and empower people to value and preserve water. We do this through research, education and policy work that is made possible by your generous contributions.
For more than 50 years, we have tackled complex water issues by fostering collaboration between local communities, businesses, universities, government agencies, charitable foundations and conservation partners.
