Providing clean drinking water

to communities in need.

Warm Springs has been water crisis since 2019 with broken water lines and a fire to their treatment facility.

Our mission is to provide clean drinking water to Indigenous communities in need, while actively educating, raising awareness, and partnering with community organizations that support and strive for Indigenous sovereignty.

We have purchased over 20,000 gallons of drinking water for Warm Springs since 2022!

Actions often speak louder than words and that has been our focus from our inception as a grassroots mutual aid group. As we evolve into a nonprofit business we will strive to keep those same mutual aid principals that cut through bureaucracy and get water to the people and communities in need.
