LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle That Gives Back

October 29, 2014 By Nedra McDaniel 20 Comments

LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle
I was given the opportunity to check out the LifeStraw® Go. I was interested in the product for two reasons.
You can take this water bottle on adventures and you don’t have to worry about if you run out of bottled water because LifeStraw® Go can filter water from a stream or river to become safe for drinking.
LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle
The second reason I was interested in this product was because of its give back concept for each filter purchased.
LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle

‘Follow the Liters’ Program:

  • LifeStraw®’s  ’Follow the Liters’ cause marketing campaign harnesses the collaborative power of individuals to help solve one of the world’s most pressing issues – lack of access to safe drinking water for people in developing countries.
  • Under the ’Follow the Liters’ campaign,  when a consumer purchases any LifeStraw® water filter, a portion of the funds are used to provide one school child in Africa with safe drinking water for an entire school year.

LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle

The filtration process is extremely simple.

Unscrew the top and take the filter out.

LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle

Fill up the water bottle with water.

LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle

Screw the top back on and let your kid test the water first.

LifeStraw® Go- A Water Bottle

Why would I let my son test it first???

Here is why

LifeStraw Go:

  • LifeStraw® Go converts microbiologically contaminated water into safe drinking water, removing 99.9999%

After each drinking session, unscrew lid and blow through the LifeStraw® to expel dirty water. This water bottle can filter up to 1,000 liters!
