For every bottle of water we sell we donate a meal

We are building a bottled water company that will donate a meal for every bottle of water sold.

In short Buy one Kairos bottled water, donate one meal. (Buy 1 = Feed 1)

We plan to achieve this by teaming up with organizations like feedamerica.org and nokidshungry.org which provides 10 meals per just $1 and others such similar organizations around the world.

This gives us healthy profit margins ever after giving a meal away.

We are at idea stage and we need help launching and setting up in the US. We need money to fund inventory.

We have been researching for about two weeks. (Started early July)

4 weeks.

Our previous idea was an app where you could buy access to someone else's portfolio. Turns out that its illegal in India to 'pay' to get access to someone else's portfolio.

We haven't participated in another "accelerator" or "pre-accelerator"

Food is one of the most basic things in life and million of people including children do not get the required amount of food.

If we can solve this even by a small percentage that would be a great win for us.

No we do not have domain expertise but we know that the most important thing for a beverage company to succeed is to have good distribution set up.

People are empathetic towards causes more than ever and thus we believe that people will choose our water, especially since there is not much difference in bottled water.

Our competitors would be Pepsico, Coca Cola, Dr pepper Keurig and all the traditional beverage giants.

Our competitors do not understand that there is a huge niche of people that are becoming more cause/purpose driven than ever and are willing to support cause/purpose driven organizations.

We intend make money per sale of each bottle of water.

No other relevant info.

No noncompete or overlapping IPR agreements exist.

There is no coder on the team.

We want to be based out of USA after YC.

1) People who were born completely deaf think in sign language or images.

Bonus: Babies born to deaf parents have been shown to babble in sign language! They move their hands in ways not typical of babies of speaking parents, mimicking in a general sense their parents' hand motions, even if the babies themselves are not deaf!

1) The success of other Indian companies that have gone through YC like Meesho, Razorpay, Zepto, etc convinced us to apply.

2) We believe YC is our best shot at launching in the US.

Hard to miss YC if you are interested in startups.
