# Today Is World Water Day

## Clean water changes everything.

Worldwide, 663 million people live without clean water—many of them in the same countries from which we source our coffees. Though at Blue Bottle we take care to work with [co-ops](/content/frequency/women-of-kinyovu-station/index.html), [washing stations](/content/frequency/women-of-kinyovu-station/index.html), and [farms](/content/frequency/origins-brazil/index.html) that promote gender equity, sustainable practices ([like water-saving technologies](/content/frequency/coffee-processing-basics/index.html)), and good working conditions for farmers and producers alike, we're inspired by the enthusiasm of our guests who contribute to the many worthy causes that we support by visiting our cafes.

In honor of World Water Day, we're teaming back up with [Charity: Water](https://www.charitywater.org/world-water-day) to raise funds for the people who need it most. Today and every time you visit one of our [Washington, D.C., cafes](/content/cafes#dc/index.html), you'll have the option to donate to this incredible organization.

We've already seen the impact of your support in [Ethiopia](/content/frequency/womens-history-month/index.html). With your help, we'll continue to make a real difference for people all over the world.
