Today Only: Buy Apps and Help Bring Clean Water to Developing Nations

Apps for Water is an app drive where all proceeds of apps purchased will support charity: water, a non-profit organization that brings clean drinking water to developing nations. Clean water improves health and sanitation, brings change to communities by protecting women and children, and aids in the economic growth of poverty stricken nations.

Every $1 invested in improved water access and sanitation yields an average of $12 in economic returns, depending on the project.

Today only, by purchasing one of the listed Mac, iPad, or iPhone apps participating in the Apps for Water project, your purchase will aid families in need of clean water. If you’ve been looking to purchase Smile’s TextExpander, Useful Fruit Software’s Pear Note, or Gaucho Software’s Seasonality Core, consider this an opportunity to acquire new software while giving something back in return. For those not in need of a new app, you can also donate to charity: water directly through their website.

The drive will end after Tuesday, December 20th.
