Double the impact of your donation with The Big Give Christmas Challenge

September 26th, 2024

Can you think of a better gift than safe drinking water?


It’s almost that time of year again… We’re taking part in the most exciting match funding campaign this side of Christmas!

For one week only, every £1 you donate will become £2. It’s a great chance to make your donations go even further and help even more people. Let us know you’re planning to support by making a pledge below.

We will release the link to our Big Give page a few days before the campaign goes live. Make sure you follow our social pages, keep an eye on our website or sign up to receive a reminder below.

Make your pledge now

The Big Give Challenge is an online-only campaign. It opens noon, Tuesday 3rd December and ends noon, Tuesday 10th December. We’re aiming to raise over £60,000 in just 7 days (or less!) and help up to 86,515 people gain access to safe water and sanitation and improved hygiene practices.

Safe water improves health and economic opportunities; with more time and energy children can learn and adults can earn a fair wage. This means a better life for future generations.

“In the past I was the one who used to fetch water for my family. The water was dirty and brown in colour and the thought of my children and grandchildren consuming it filled me with dread. Now the water point has been fixed they are healthier and their skin is smooth as stones in the river. Safe water means my grandchildren will have more opportunities than me.”

Once we reach our target the match funding is GONE! So to ensure your donation will be doubled, it’s best to get it in as soon as you can when the Challenge opens on 3rd December.
