BRAND | Memobottle
Memobottle is a creative initiative based in Melbourne, Australia who aims to challenge how we, as a society, think about single-use consumption, and to educate about the environmental costs of our modern conveniences.
Growing up in a small coastal town south of Melbourne, co-founders Jesse Leeworthy and Jonathan Byrt saw first hand the devastating effect that single use plastic water bottles were having on our oceans and environment, an issue not unique to Australia.Human convenience is often the catalyst for environmental harm. They understood to lead a social movement, and break the populations dependence on single-use drink bottles, a truly convenient, beautiful alternative needed to be created.
Every memobottle sold provides someone with five months' access to safe water. Memobottle is a proud supporter of Water.org, an international nonprofit organisation that has positively transformed millions of lives around the world with access to safe water and sanitation.
