Your New Year’s Eve present could be a PUR water filtration pitcher!
January 7′s celebrity climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro: Summit on the Summit features one of my fave “Actresses” of all time: Jessica Biel. Sure, she hasn’t done much since 7th Heaven and Summer Catch (with Freddie Prinze! another long-lost star), but that means she has all the time in the world to get and stay smoking hot. Oh, and date Justin Timberlake (sometimes). Anyway, she and other celebs are climbing Kilimanjaro in the name of clean drinking water.
PUR (the water filtration system company) is partnering with Summit on the Summit (SOTS), and you can get more real details HERE, as opposed to my chatter about JB’s hotness (here’s her trainer–damn, he’s hot too!).
4,000 children in developing countries die every day from illness and disease related to unsafe drinking water. PUR along with its not-for-profit partner, the Children’s Safe Drinking Water Program (CSDW), is committed to alleviating this global crisis by providing clean drinking water to those in need.
Q: How Can You Help (besides getting hot, getting famous, and climbing Kilamanjaro)?
A: Buy a PUR filtration system
1 System = 1 Week: For every PUR system purchase, one week of clean drinking water is provided to a child in the developing world through CSDW. To-date, CSDW has already provided 1.8 billion liters of clean water to children and their families around the world.
Stats:
- By simply using a PUR water filter, you will remove many of the common contaminants found in drinking water. Including: 94% of atrazine, 98% of lead and other metals, 99.9% of microbial cysts and 96-99% of pharmaceuticals.
- Switching from bottled water to filtered water and a reusable bottle can save one person up to $600 a year and eliminate up to 3,200 plastic bottles.
And now to the GIVEAWAY part! Enter to win a PUR pitcher simply by leaving a comment below! You’ve got to write SOMETHING before the climbers get climbing on January 7, 2010 to be entered to win.
