UN International World Water Day was held on 22nd March as a means of focusing attention on the importance of freshwater.

This year Gloria Jean's Coffees in partnership with Water For Water distributed free water and information in inner city Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth to raise awareness that almost one billion people lack access to clean drinking water throughout our world.

Thank you to Nicoletta at UN Water and the team at Gloria Jean’s Coffees for helping us celebrate World Water Day 2011.
