HOW IT ALL BEGAN
A pastor, a business owner, and an inventor walk into a restaurant… it sounds like the start of a horrible “dad joke,” huh? Perhaps, but it was also the start of a really cool adventure.
Once upon a time, there were three middle-aged men, each on his own winding journey through life, who, through a series of interesting connections, found themselves around the dinner table with a shared vision - a vision to leave this world a better place for their children, and a mission to model gratitude, openness, kindness in their own lives.
The year was 2019, and what began as a great idea for an everyday consumer product evolved into a movement to celebrate the power of human connection.
And so, vīdl was born… to three dads who had the courage to dream an outrageous dream…
... that a water bottle could change the world.
