Colgate is proud to continue our commitment to support water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) programming through our partnership with Water For People as they pursue their mission to reach Everyone Forever with WASH services across Guatemala, India and Peru. From 2013 through 2021, Colgate's total support of more than $2.2 million has helped more than 500,000 people in communities, schools and clinics gain access to safe water services. Taking action on water security is critical as we reimagine a healthier, more sustainable future for all people, their pets and our planet. We’re proud to be recognized on CDP’s Water A List for our continued transparency and action—we manage what we measure. “Colgate-Palmolive sets an exceptional standard in their sustainability practices and their dedication towards reaching the UN’s SDG 6 of clean water and sanitation for all. Water is the fundamental building block of strong empowered communities, and Colgate-Palmolive’s investments in the Water For People’s Everyone Forever model has helped lift families out of extreme poverty. Over the past nine years alone, Colgate-Palmolive has made a significant impact in the lives of over half a million people living in India and Latin America. Now, children are healthier, can attend school, and women don’t have to spend countless hours daily to collect water. This provides a tremendous opportunity of building a better future for everyone across the globe! Water For People is eternally grateful for the investments Colgate-Palmolive has made in our mission as well as their influence in changing the way people think about our most precious resource: water!” Eleanor Allen CEO WATER FOR PEOPLE PAGE 77 2021 SUSTAINABILITY AND SOCIAL IMPACT REPORT
