Gregory Stromberg on Bringing Clean Water To The People Who Needed The Most

The story behind CannedWater4kids (CW4K) CannedWater4kids (cW4k) was established on January 22, 2008, by Greg Stromberg, a 47-year veteran of the packaging industry focused on cans.   He was alarmed at the rate at which children worldwide were dying from waterborne diseases caused by the lack of clean, safe drinking water. It seemed odd that a world able to put men on the moon or create self-driving cars had not fixed the clean drinking water problem. With support from the Can industry, and a passion for wanting to save children and reverse this trend of water-borne diseases, our lean 501c3 E-charity was born. The aluminum can and aluminum bottle have become a billboard for broadcasting the charity’s purpose. Our canned water product also promotes the impressive sustainability attributes of the aluminum container which benefits the industry- and our environment. Best of all, we’re helping children today so they have a chance at tomorrow. A video detailing Greg’s motivation for cW4k can be seen here: https://www.cannedwater4kids.com/special/ourstart.html Greg’s Grandfather was key inspiration for the nonprofit Greg’s Grandfather, Dr. Norvin Stromberg, was known for his kindness providing free dental care to those in need during the great depression. This selfless action became one of the things that fueled Greg’s passion and formation of CannedWater4kids. Times were tough. People needed dental care but couldn’t afford it because all of their money was for food. Norvin was there to help. This selfless action was always top of mind for Greg. Inspiration was also drawn from Newman’s Own Brand, where 100% of the royalties and profits that it receives from the sale of Newman’s Own products for charitable purposes.   Contact Greg: Website LinkedIn Facebook Instagram YouTube Twitter [EDITOR’S NOTE: This podcast is sponsored by No Limits Selling.
