Response to Humanitarian Disasters
Human beings can survive without food for several weeks. However, without access to water, dehydration leads to death within a few days. Nestlé’s key competence in serving its customers is the fast and efficient delivery of safe drinking water in a transportable form. Therefore, supporting disaster relief with water donations is an area where Nestlé can make an important positive social impact.
