Give One, Get One

Now you can get a high-quality water filter for yourself and give one to a family in need. When you donate through our Give One – Get One program, we’ll send you a Sawyer PointONE Bucket Filter Kit (minus bucket & drill bit), and provide a matching filter to an underprivileged family without access to clean, safe, drinking water.

  • Removes 99.99999% of all bacteria, parasites, protozoa, and other harmful particles down to 0.1 micron
  • Lasts 20+ years or 1 million gallons
  • Attaches to buckets, bottles, or taps
  • Easy daily cleaning, no replacement parts needed

Kit includes filter, attachment hardware, cleaning tools, and instructions.

U.S. shipping only. Donation receipt provided for $50 per donated filter.

Giving Differently

(Crypto/Stock/DAF)

Giving differently allows you to maximize your impact through non-cash giving options like cryptocurrency, appreciated stock, and Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs). These methods can offer significant tax advantages while helping more families gain access to clean, safe, drinking water. By giving assets instead of cash, you may be able to give more than you thought possible — transforming lives while stewarding your resources wisely.
