Giving Back

SimpleDiagrams LLC donates 10% of every SimpleDiagrams2 license purchase to Water.org. Why? Read on...

Here's a startling quote from Water.org: 884 million people lack access to safe water supplies. That's 1/8th of the world's population. Almost a billion people. A fact of this magnitude is almost impossible to appreciate.

If you or I were walking past just a few people on the side of the road drinking polluted water, we'd feel terrible. But 884 million? It's hard to come to grips with.

So it's fantastic to know that groups like Water.org are coming to grips with the problem.

Water.org is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving access to clean water around the world. They employ an intensive, locally oriented approach to help communities secure safe and clean water. You might want to read about their solutions to these problems here.

I want to help in this effort. And I think you do too. So let's donate 10% of every sale to Water.org. When you purchase a SimpleDiagrams2 license, you're helping provide clean water to the world. And you're making some friggin' awesome diagrams in the meantime.

(I'll send a note out on twitter at the end of every month with the total amount donated for the month.)
