The impact in 2008.

Saks Fifth Avenue is partnering with charity: water again this year to bring clean water to people in need.
Almost a billion people on the planet don’t have access to safe, clean drinking water. That’s one in eight of us. charity: water is a non profit organization bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing nations. 100% of the money raised goes to direct project costs, funding sustainable clean water solutions in areas of greatest need.
Help Saks Fifth Avenue build wells.
From founder, Scott Harrison.
We were humbled last year by the effort of Saks Fifth Avenue employees, customers and vendors that resulted in more than $500,000 raised – enough clean water to transform the lives of over 30,000 people. The heart, passion and generosity by all who participated was incredible.

This year, while we in the developing world are challenged by our economy, those we seek to serve need our help even more. We’ll do our part and make sure 100% of your gifts reach them.
Here's how you can help.
