Donate in memory

Donate in lieu of flowers

Commemorating the life of someone special by donating to WaterAid can be a wonderful way to remember a person's life. Giving the gift of water in memory of a loved one can mean a new start for families across the world, along with peace of mind for a healthier and longer life.

If you would like to raise funds in memory of a loved one, you can do so online by setting up a remembrance Gift list. Friends and family can use this to make a gift in memory through a safe and simple way of donating.

To set up a list in memory, just click on the link below and follow the simple instructions:

You could also set up a collection without using the internet. If you would like some WaterAid leaflets to distribute amongst your friends and family please email the Supporter Care Team or call us on 0845 6000 433 for further details.

A gift given in memory gives you the chance to remember the life of a loved one. Paying tribute to their life in this special way can transform the lives of others. Water is essential for life and by giving such a gift can have amazing effects, releasing people from poverty and disease.

If you would like to donate through buying a Lifesaving gift, you will receive a beautiful card describing what you have bought which you can pass on to the family along with your own personal message.

To buy a gift in memory of a loved one, please visit www.wateraid.org/shopforlife. You could also send a cheque to us or the funeral director (who will forward it on to us) or call us on 0845 6000 433 and we can go through these options.

As a special thank you for gifts of £200 or more, you may like to write a dedication to your loved one to be displayed on our online remembrance page. We can also send you a dedication card to remember your special words. To arrange a dedication, please email our Supporter Care Team, or telephone 0845 6000 433.
