    I was perusing for a new water bottle a bit ago looking to make my purchase matter just a bit on a grander scale, and I found Miir.  Part of each purchase goes toward a couple different charities focusing on clean drinking water for people.  The cool part??? There's also a "give code" on the bottom of each water bottle/tumbler/growler that tells you which of their projects your specific purchase went toward and you can read about the progress.  Anyone have any other companies that do something similar?  It's a really cool idea.
