Our mission
Together
We thrive
Together We Thrive focuses on access to clean water across the United States through our Clean Water Lab, and provides fresh fruits and vegetables to food insecure populations in Southern California through our Thrive Food Bank.
Clean Drinking Water is critical for human health and not everyone in the U.S. has access to clean drinking water when a disaster hits, or when their water supply has become polluted from industrial sources and/or disintegrating infrastructure.
Thrive’s Clean Water Lab provides clean water access through bottled water donations of Good Drop, water filtration systems, and water testing for free to people in the U.S. affected by natural and manmade disasters. We are also driving awareness to lead water contamination at K-12 schools and helping the affected school districts with their mitigation strategies.
In the food space, Thrive Food Bank provides weekly free open air farmers’ markets in Southern California, with fresh fruits and vegetables available to food insecure populations.
