Give an hour to WaterAid this payday!

Imagine spending your entire working day collecting just enough water for your family to survive.

Clock graphic reading: Give an hour

Millions of people in the developing world spend up to eight hours a day walking for water, often so dirty it may kill them. This grueling, daily journey leaves little time to earn any money.

By giving an hour of your salary to WaterAid each month, you can help the world's poorest people gain access to safe water close to home.

Donating through your salary is easy – and best of all it costs you less as you won't pay tax on your donation. A monthly gift of £15 will cost a higher rate tax payer just £9 and a standard rate payer £12.
