Fundraising for children under five

It's never too early to start learning about WaterAid and helping us enable more people gain access to clean drinking water.

The simplest fundraising ideas are usually the best, especially for young children!

Collect Buckets of Pennies for Buckets of WaterBuckets of pennies for buckets of water

Take part in our Buckets of Pennies appeal by collecting your spare pennies and then make a river of coins to help some of the world's poorest people have clean water in their buckets!

United Nations World Water Day on March 22 every year is a great time to collect Buckets of Pennies for Buckets of Water, but you could do this activity at any time of year!

Walk for Water!

Get out in the fresh air, keep fit and get walking for water! Getting sponsored to walk for water is a great way of raising funds for some of the world's poorest people while raising awareness of the challenges faced by children in developing countries as young as four or five who have to walk for miles to collect their family's water. Whether you toddle around the school hall, playing field or local park - children of all ages can get involved in this activity!

To request your free Walk for Water fundraising pack, please email schools@wateraid.org or call 08456 000 433.
