Making a donation in memory is a lovely way for friends and family to celebrate the life of a loved one while supporting a cause close to their heart.

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 such a gift can have amazing effects, releasing people from poverty and disease. 

You can support WaterAid's work in memory of your loved one in many different ways – by making a one-off donation, asking for donations in lieu of flowers, taking part in a fundraising event or setting up a tribute fund. 

If you would like to talk to a member of our team about the different ways you can make a donation in memory please do get in touch with us on 020 7793 4594 or email supportercare@wateraid.org. Our team will be pleased to help. 

One-off donation 

If you would like to make a donation towards our work, to help transform lives in memory of your loved one, you can do so online.  

Funeral collections 

Collecting donations in lieu of flowers can be a great way to celebrate the life of your loved one with friends and family. To talk about the different ways you can collect donations you can get in touch with our Supporter Care Team on 020 7793 4594 or using this form.  

Take part in a fundraising event 

A great way to get active and remember a loved one is to take part in a sponsored event such as a run or a swim, and raise funds for WaterAid. Find out more about our events. 

Set up a tribute fund 

If you would like to set up a special memorial or tribute fund, you can do this through justgiving.com. If you need any help or advice please contact our Supporter Care Team. 

Dedicating your gift 

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 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 020 7793 4594.

Payroll Giving - the easy tax-free way to donate to WaterAid! 

Payroll giving is a simple, tax-efficient scheme which allows employees to donate to any UK registered charity of their choice directly from their salary, or occupational pension, before tax.

Making a donation through Payroll Giving costs the donor less money, because the donation comes out of pre-tax salary. A monthly gift of £15 could cost as little as £9 (based on a higher-rate tax payer). This means that enabling more people to gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education costs employees less.
