Testimonials
"Our collaboration with WaterAid is a true win-win. Not only are we raising funds, but our customers feel good about their contribution. It also helps shape our image, both externally and internally.”Katarina Hempe, Head of Corporate Social Responsibility, H&M.
“I think the £1 million we’ve raised in Whitbread is being more wisely spent than I could ever have imagined. The transparency of the spend and the value that’s being driven out of the pounds we generate is absolutely 100%.”Simon Ewins, Director, Whitbread.
“WaterAid is an excellent example of value for money.” UK Government’s Department for International Development report on WaterAid partnership, 2010

of the projects they have raised money for
• Phase three: The thank you• We run a campaign thanking all listeners for their support, telling them
that we have completed the project, and asking if they would like to support WaterAid in the future

Fundraising
What your presenters ask for is up to them …..
… how they’re asking for it …
www.wateraid.org
They won’t be on their own
www.wateraid.org
And as part of that support

www.wateraid.org
In Malawi• Malawi: 14.9 million population
• 3 million without water supply• 6.5 million without sanitation• 92 deaths per thousand under 5’s
www.wateraid.org
We do have a target
• One years work in Malawi costs us £1,800,000
• We are looking for a partner who can help us raise £500,000• And DFID match this with £500,000
• And the partnership also means.....
• The £400,000 we can raise from our own supporters• Is matched too by the government
• So your support could earn us another £900,000

In perspective
0.3% of your listeners giving £3 each
