Earth Water
Jul. 21, 2015
The Earth Group Earth water was born in 2005 in a small university apartment in Edmonton, Canada. At the time, Kori Chilibeck and one other individual were working second jobs to support themselves, and volunteering their time to Earth Water a few days a week. Earth Water began with one store but quickly spread throughout Edmonton, with numerous cafes, restaurants and retail stores signing on to the Earth Water mission, and enthusiastically offering their customers a product with true social value. They have always wanted to offer products that generally cost and taste the same as their competitors. The difference is, at the end of the day, they give back to those who need it most. |
