Vivid Roots mission is to inspire people to live life vividly and help those in need along the way.
The do this even more now by taking small groups of people on life changing Impact Adventure Trips and using proceeds to increase access to clean water, education, and health services in under-served communities.
Vivid Roots is a social enterprise that gives clean water to those in need with every purchase. They teamed up with Rotary International to fund their first water project in Chiquimula, Guatemala.
Rotary International is an organization dedicated to promoting peace, goodwill, and cooperation among people all over the world. Through a wide variety of service projects and initiatives, Rotary International seeks to build sustainable communities that are free from poverty, injustice, and conflict.
The organization’s work is guided by its core values of integrity, inclusiveness, sustainability, diversity, passion for service, and leadership.
Rotary International envisions a future where every community around the globe has access to clean water and sanitation, education for all children regardless of gender or background, healthcare for all members of society regardless of ability or income level, and justice for individuals and communities alike.
They are now continuing the partnership with multiple Rotary clubs & the non-profit Water For The Americas to implement sustainable clean water systems in developing countries.
The team consists of four friends, all in their early 20s, from Boise, ID who decided to start a brand that embodied their fun and energetic passion for impacting the world in a fun way.
