People Water Share for Taiphoon Haiyan Aid


People Water, a new concious capitalism bottled-water company,
allegedly had an employee go rogue and start a widespread global campaign where sharing People Water's photo would result in $1 going to help the people affected by typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. Shocked by the disaster's effects and surprised at the ease of the ability to help (simply by a photo onInstagram), thousands of people joined in .
But was it a smart planned out advertising scheme or a legitimate accident?
•People Water's founder & former chief  claimed "EVERY REPOST = $1 @peoplewater will donate $1 for every repost #peoplewater 👍❤️🙏💦" in a caption with the following photo on his personal Instagram.



People Water's Instagram thanked people who joined/were currently joining the campaign in their Instagram post.


People Water's Instagram later posted a piece describing the event like an accident/problem in a post on their website's blog and in a post on their Instagram.





●People Water's founder & chief added the word fired in quotes ("fired") in front of his title on his personal Instagram.
●People Water's founder & chief giver (or former) described his view of the incident in an Instagram post on his personal Instagram along with apologies to the company and his fans/supporters, thank-you's, and some motivational wisdom.
"I'm like a cat... I always land on my feet. I will always have a passion for helping people, that will never leave me. Scenes of the children and places I've been are etched into my brain forever. Our lives are so fragile and so short that we can't spend so much time thinking about ourselves, think of others. The world is a lot bigger than just you. Thanks to everyone who has supported me to this point. I will always be THE CHIEF WATER GIVER."

Anon Nation did repost the photo to our Instagram in belief of the campaign having legitimacy.


Anon Nation will continue supporting People Water's social efforts & their "fired" founder & chief water giver's commitment to helping others.
