Stella Artois and Matt Damon team up once again in order to raise funds for Water.org. Although that might seem like a strange partnership considering that beer and water don't necessarily go hand-in-hand, it's one that highlights how companies are making it a priority to give back in meaningful ways.
Produced by Mother London and 1stAve Machine, Stella Artois and Matt Damon stars in two short films that revolve around the tag line "Buy a lady a drink." The first one depicts a woman's journey to get water, ending with a website URL that directs people to where they can donate $25 to guarantee someone in the developing world can access five years of clean water. It's an admirable campaign.
