The Bottleless Nation Charitable Foundation is thrilled to share exciting updates about our charitable efforts for 2025. This year, we’re continuing our journey with charity: water and embarking on a new partnership with 5 Gyres. Both organizations align perfectly with our mission to provide clean water and combat plastic pollution, and we’re eager to make a meaningful impact together.
Continuing Support for charity: water
In 2024, we became supporters of charity: water, focusing on improving access to clean water in Mozambique. Our $40,000 contribution funded two new hand pumps in the Nampula province, where only 49% of the rural population has access to basic water services. This initiative was crucial in helping communities reduce the time spent walking to find a functioning water point, directly impacting their quality of life.
This year, our support for charity: water projects continue. Building upon our 2024 momentum, Bottleless Nation made a $62,000 contribution to support a new School Water Point and Sanitization project in Rwanda. This project takes a holistic approach, addressing critical water, sanitation, and hygiene needs while empowering the next generation through education. We believe in fostering long-term change, and this initiative is a testament to that commitment.
New Partnership with 5 Gyres
This January, we’re thrilled to announce our new partnership with 5 Gyres, an organization at the forefront of the global movement against plastic pollution. Founded with the mission to empower action through science, advocacy, and community engagement, 5 Gyres leverages these strengths to drive innovative solutions to plastic pollution. Their work aligns perfectly with Bottleless Nation’s mission to reduce plastic waste and promote environmental cleanup.

Our $30,000 contribution will support 5 Gyres’ microplastics-specific scientific research, focusing on an innovative Floating Wetlands project. This initiative aims to capture and mitigate microplastics before they reach our oceans, an essential step in preserving marine ecosystems. By installing and studying artificial wetlands, 5 Gyres is exploring nature-based solutions to combat the pervasive issue of microplastics.
5 Gyres is renowned for its commitment to advancing high-impact policies, while educating communities about the impact of plastic pollution and offering science-backed solutions. Their advocacy efforts have contributed to significant policy changes, such as the ban on microbeads in personal care products. By partnering with 5 Gyres, Bottleless Nation is joining a network of changemakers dedicated to creating a sustainable future.
As we embark on this partnership, we’re excited to share updates and insights from the field throughout the year. Together with 5 Gyres, we’re committed to making a tangible impact on reducing plastic pollution and fostering a healthier planet for future generations.
