Providing excellence in fruit, however, is not the only passion of Perez’s. A portion of the sales of Water For All brand mangos is donated to Blue Missions Group, a non-profit dedicated to improving the health of rural communities in the Dominican Republic through the construction of aqueduct and sanitation systems. Blue Missions Group leads volunteer based trips to these rural areas in an effort to educate, and inspire others to become “change makers”. Giving back to the communities he works with is a driving force for Perez and a mission at Continental Fresh. For more information about Blue Missions, or to participate in an upcoming sanitation project, please visit www.bluemissions.org. To order Water for All mangos, please contact the AMC Fruit Department at 773.321.7550 or fruit@amarano.com.
