Project Water

www.projectwater.ca

Founded in the year 2000 by Jody Steinhauer, President of The Bargains Group, Project Water was born in response to the inexcusable fact that more homeless people die from dehydration in the summer months than from exposure in the winter. Each year Jody and the Bargain’s Group team commit hundreds of hours of their time to Project Water: securing the water bottles; warehousing the product; lining up volunteers to help load the water; and, leading the distribution of the product through front-line relief organizations to the homeless during extreme heat alerts. Since its inception, the program has placed in excess of 1 million bottles of water into the hands of Toronto and surrounding area homeless through over 150 front-line relief organizations and homeless shelters.

Project Water would not be possible if it wasn’t for the generous community minded sponsors such as Nestle Waters Canada, The Bargains Group, Home Depot, Michael Communications PR, Danamark Water Care, Canada Cartage and the hundreds of volunteers.

Plans are currently underway to expand this life saving project to major centres across Canada.
