Aveda’s annual Earth Month campaign is back for 2019, but with a new look! To celebrate its new partnership with charity:water, one of the leading NPOs bringing clean water to developing nations, Aveda is introducing a limited-edition Shampure Hand & Body Wash with 100% of sales going to charity:water.

Aveda is proud to announce a partnership with charity: water, one of the leading non-profit organizations bringing clean drinking water, hygiene and sanitation (WASH) to people in developing nations. Since 1999, Aveda has made an incredible impact through annual Earth Month campaigns, raising more than $60 million for environmental causes around the world.
Now, together with charity: water, Aveda will help bring clean water to people in need in India, Nepal, Madagascar and Ethiopia from Earth Month 2019 and beyond. When families gain access to clean water, they’re healthier, safer and have more time to attend school, earn income and be together.
To raise funds for Earth Month 2019, Aveda has created a limited-edition hand and body wash with the
calming Shampure aroma. 100% of the purchase price from each Limited Edition Shampure Hand and Body Wash gives one person clean water. Direct donations can also be made at charitywater.org/aveda.
Shampure Hand and Body Wash is a babassu nut-derived cleanser that gently cleanses the skin. The Shampure aroma calms the senses with 25 pure flower and plant essences including certified organic lavender, petitgrain and ylang ylang. This limited-edition bottle is made with 100% post-consumer recycled materials.
