The Japanese have a great eye for design and a love of innovative products so we always thought the KOR ONE would do well there. So this summer we hooked up with a fantastic distribution partner, Alphanet in Tokyo, and began working with them to get things ready for a big Fall launch. We’ve been blown away by the results. The KOR ONE seems to have made quite an impression, showing up in a car commercial, dozens of magazines, even a TV show. Now if they would just stop using it to drink tea ;-)

1It is true you only give back 1 .. ONE percent and I can not see on your site where you are giving this to? What programs are you supporting ? How really is your company making a difference besides “charity washing” your new water bottle ?

2We encourage you to visit our website to find out more here: http://www.korwater.com/tfg. We donate 1% of all sales to our named Thirst for Giving charities on our web site. We do this by submitting our tax return to the 1% organization and cutting a check. 1% of our sales represents more than 100% of our profits at this stage of our growth. Unlike “profits”, sales are not fungible, particularly when you are audited against your tax return. Please save the “charity washing” comments until you are better informed.
