In celebration of WORLD WATER DAY, we will be donating 50% of all proceeds made 3/20 - 3/21 from FILM DEVELOPING, SCANNING, AND PRINTING to our friends at W.A.T.A. (Water Access To All)! 💦📸

What is W.A.T.A.? 💧

Water Access To All (W.A.T.A.) is a nonprofit organization focused on bringing clean drinking water to communities that lack reliable access to safe water. Since its founding, W.A.T.A. has installed more than 600 water filtration systems, helping provide clean water access to over 3,000 people across projects in El Salvador, Guatemala, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Thailand.

World Water Day, observed globally on March 22, highlights the importance of safe water access.

During this fundraiser with Dexter’s Camera, the W.A.T.A. team will be in Colombia installing water filtration systems for families that currently rely on unsafe water sources.

Support from the Dexter’s community helps make this work possible and also supports future projects, including an upcoming trip to Guatemala later this spring.
