into real change.
Drink For Change was a public-awareness event that supported cafes across Victoria who wanted to save water. During the first week of December, customers at participating cafes donated change for their complimentary water. The money raised in these cafes then went towards initiatives that would help the cafe save water.
Drink for Change highlighted how an industry can make a difference by committing to environmentally friendly practices through the support of their customers.
