ONE DROP-an initiative of Guy Laliberté, Founder of Cirque du Soleil-is a non-governmental organization (NGO) established on October 29, 2007, in Montreal. Water is essential to all life. And it starts with just ONE DROP. With access to safe water, communities can learn, build and flourish. That's why ONE DROP works from all angles to take safe water further. With its uniquely artistic approach, ONE DROP educates and implements site-specific safe water solutions while allocating microfinance loans to help ensure sustainable development. Worldwide, ONE DROP's ongoing creative projects also raise awareness about water-related issues and encourage smarter water practices. Together, we have the power and responsibility to take action, in global solidarity. To learn more about ONE DROP, visit ONEDROP.org.
