DONATE Water Filters For Flint

This is the only pitcher filter that removes lead. Zero Water has set up a
donation where they will match 1:1. These filters are needed IMMEDIATELY
for this ongoing crisis in Flint, so if you can donate, don't delay.

Since late 2015, the community of Flint, MI has been in a State of Emergency due to elevated levels of lead in their municipality's drinking water.
As a result, many members of the community - including children and pregnant mothers - have been shown to have high amounts of lead in their blood. This is a major health concern, and we and members of the community are wondering how things managed to get so dire.

As the only pour-through filter pitchers on the market certified by the NSF for lead reduction, we at ZeroWater are doing what we can to help. In addition to donating pitchers and filters to the schools and residents of Flint, we also want to enlist your help. For every device and/or filter you donate, we'll match your donation.
