(OTC Pink: INKW) is pleased to announce that the company has donated an entire truckload of BE WATERTM to Jackson, Kentucky to support rural residents in the surrounding areas affected by the recent flooding who have yet to receive aid.  Greene Concepts has sent a truckload of BE WATER (1,540 cases or 36,960 bottles) to the First Church of God in Jackson, Kentucky for distribution amongst the area’s residents still in need of supplies.
