Holiday shopping is an obsession. And this season's Bowery Babes Holiday Event was held at Bloomingdale's in Soho. Bowery Babes is a club of hip moms in the downtown area and their holiday event was a toy drive benefiting Baby Buggy. We have worked with Baby Buggy in the past - they are a Robin Hood-esque organization that takes donations from rich NYC families (used cribs, strollers, high chairs, etc) and donates them to families in need. Kids were able to run around the entire fifth floor and only stopped to snag a Christmas cookie and wash it down with Y Water.
Y Water is organic, low calorie, nutritious drink. It is the first of a new category of “developmental drinks” which provide the vitamins and minerals essential to a child’s healthy growth.
Y Water is also the beginning of the next generation of green. Not only is the bottle BPA free and100% recyclable, but they are reusable connectible and double as toys.

Last week, Y Water sponsored the Ballet Hispanico’s Annual Holiday Benefit at The Gates in New York City.

Y Water Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa Miracle
• Posted on December 1st by abeNyc When Y Water set out to support the NYC LAB School, it was for a host of great reasons. First and foremost to get our nutritious, low-calorie beverage into the hands of smart, active kids. Secondarily to participate in the conversation of healthy choices that parents and teachers can steer the kids into. When we began the dialogue with Megan Adams, the Middle School Principle (who we met at an event earlier in the summer), we never quite bargained for the additional benefits of the association. Let me explain. In these harsh economic times, the New York City Public Schools ...

Y Water Highlights Share Our Strength
• Posted on November 24th by abeNyc We at Y Water are always researching organizations that are doing important work for kids both nutritionally and otherwise. Today, we were struck by this piece of information from the Huffington Post that we wanted to share with you. We often hear about U.S. teachers being paid poorly for all the work they do to educate children. But did you know that 63 percent of teachers report buying food for the classroom each month with their own money? That's just one statistic from a report put out by Read More & Comment →
