FreshWaterAlert™ - A Global Call For Water Quality Action To Help Communities, Families and Children.

Atlanta, GA, 22 April, 2008 --- H2oAlliance launched a new campaign entitled "FreshWaterAlert' to recognize the Earth Day, and to help ease the worldwide water quality crisis.

The campaign will provide education, raise awareness, promote volunteer efforts, and provide solutions to global water-quality related problems. The focus is water quality and water-efficiency, and the goal is to improve water quality and reduce water stress. The vision is to help ease the burden on millions of families who currently struggle to access safe water, and promote world peace through freshwater awareness.

The FreshWaterAlert campaign uses entrepreneurial approaches to increase awareness, and help key non-profit partners raise much needed funds for worthy causes. The campaign encourages people to support UNICEF's drive to bring safe water to communities, helping families and children in emergency situations, and reducing household exposure to contaminated water.

Unsafe drinking water exacts a heavy toll on families and children worldwide. According to UNICEF, and estimated five thousand children die every day from simple diarrhea, a water-borne affliction.

"Better water quality management in communities we live and work in, can save lives and drastically cut pollution. Millions of lives can be saved or transformed by simply focusing on water quality, and better raw, treated, recycled and waste water management. And our experience managing water quality suggests that new real-time mobile water quality monitoring and measuring technologies could be a extremely valuable in managing drinking water-related risks even in most isolated areas, and especially during emergencies such as floods, droughts, and national security",
says H2oAlliance's Founder, Minna LeVine.

FreshWaterAlert campaign is a great example of how combining resources of the public and private sector volunteers can help improve water quality in communities, and bring safe drinking water within easy reach of the families that need it.
