Supporting Environmental Non-Profits

Open Water supports clean ocean initiatives through 1% for the Planet.

We couldn't do what we do without the support of amazing non-profits working towards cleaner oceans, a cleaner planet, and a healthy climate.

That’s why we’ve committed 1% of each sale to ocean cleanup efforts around the world. Cleaning up this plastic mess and promoting plastic alternatives is really hard work, so we’ve partnered with the best of the best.



THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "AWAY". WHEN WE THROW SOMETHING AWAY, IT MUST GO SOMEWHERE. FOR PLASTIC BOTTLED WATER, THAT “SOMEWHERE” IS USUALLY THE OCEAN.

Since we launched back in 2014, supporting the amazing work of non-profits was baked into what we do. From the start, we've been 1% for the Planet members—that means that as we grow as a company, our support of non-profits grows as well. Our primary giving partner is Oceanic Global, an international organization working to inspire people to care for the ocean and find solutions to protect it for the future.
