Chapter 2 has officially welcomed the One Drop Foundation to its client portfolio. Founded in 2007 by Cirque du Soleil visionary Guy Laliberté, One Drop is a globally recognized nonprofit dedicated to ensuring universal access to safe water. Its innovative impact model combines infrastructure development, behavior change through the arts, and market-driven solutions. Since its launch, One Drop has improved the lives of nearly 3 million people across more than 15 countries, earning a reputation as a leader in impact-driven philanthropy.
As part of this collaboration, Chapter 2 will elevate One Drop’s first-ever Los Angeles Gala, scheduled for November 18, 2025. The highly anticipated black-tie event will bring together celebrities, cultural icons, philanthropists, and luxury partners for an evening filled with unforgettable performances, exclusive sponsor showcases, gourmet dining, charity auctions, and dynamic afterparties. Beyond celebration, the gala aims to expand One Drop’s mission, engage wider audiences, and encourage new generations to rethink philanthropy’s potential in building a better future. Proceeds from the gala will support One Drop’s global safe water initiatives as well as local organizations aligned with its mission.
The urgency of this cause is undeniable: nearly 2.2 billion people—almost one in four worldwide—still lack access to safe drinking water. Recognizing that safe water is essential for health, education, and economic opportunity, One Drop continues its transformative work in Latin America, India, Africa, and Indigenous communities in Canada, while ramping up efforts across the Americas.
Every guest, partner, and artist contributing to the Los Angeles Gala will be part of a collective movement working toward a sustainable and water-secure future for all.
