It's always heartwarming to read stories about how our customers are making the world Ever Better. VF Corp, one of Intertek Softlines' key customers, has recently partnered with WaterAid Cambodia through their Worker and Community Development (WCD) program to bring safe drinking water and sanitation to rural communities near VF manufacturing hubs in Cambodia.

While for many of us, clean water and sanitation are everyday supplies. However, for millions of people in other parts of the world, water scarcity is real and they have been hard hit with the pandemic simply due to a lack of clean water to wash their hands. 

It is a socially responsible act for brands to give back to the communities from which they obtain labor and skills. For brands of today and tomorrow, being socially and environmentally responsible is the first step in winning the hearts of consumers.
