SVAKOM and “Drop In the Bucket” are Joining Forces to Make Water Accessible - Svakom Store

Many of us have no idea that we could save 2 million lives a year if we did nothing other than provide access to clean water, without any other medical intervention. That’s exactly what “Drop In the Bucket”-a registered international NGO has been doing since 2006, to assist community development by constructing water and sanitation facilities at schools and communities.

SVAKOM this time is joining forces with Drop in the Bucket and decided to give 10% of its sales from August 20th to August 30th to this great cause.

For SVAKOM, donating to Drop in the Bucket is a tremendous honour and the money is well spent. Drop in the Bucket does both by bringing life-saving water to communities and schools in Uganda and South Sudan as well as creating the opportunity for education, to enable children, especially girls to receive an education and realize their full potential, as they believe that education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and that every school should have access to clean water and improved sanitation facilities in order to create an environment that is conducive to learning. It’s something that fits really well with SVAKOM's concept of social responsibility.

Currently, Drop in the Bucket has constructed or rehabilitated over 350 school water points in Uganda and South Sudan, this organization has made tangible impact and should be supported to continue its worthwhile efforts. SVAKOM renders it a great positive experience to make its contributions, the more people and communities who offer their “drops” in the bucket, the more buckets will fill up and overflow to converge into a mighty strength and make a big impact.

Inferno, defined as a place or a state that resembles/suggests hell or an intense fire. Ironically, Hongkong is getting cold, we wanted to light up the night for all the LKF partiers with our fire-like energy, the best party concept (ever) and our products (of course). Throw it back to that night on the 8th of December, I believe everyone in LKF was talking about this "sex toy party" in Rula Bula.

Sex comes in multiple forms, shapes, and sizes. There is no one size fits all when it comes to what gets us going. As we take steps towards exploring our sexuality, likes & dislikes, the people and actions that make us bubble and burst, there can be a lot of concerns or fears.
