Challenge

703 million people are drinking clean water. Just a dream…or is it?

World Water Day, established by the UN in 1993, is a global call to action for the 703 million people still living without clean water around the world. Every year, charity: water joins the movement to raise awareness and inspire action—because water changes everything.

Sleep for Water Campaign

Making an impact while you sleep.

Custom-designed charity: water Sleep Kit that was sent to key influencers to encourage their participation in the campaign and share with their followers.

Outdoor Advertising

World Water Day.

Dreamy animations and starry night OOH visuals lit up major U.S. cities — from shutting down Nashville’s nightlife to shining in Times Square and LAX. Each piece carried a personal touch, featuring a custom handwriten font created by a near-and-dear 8-year-old.
