Easy Fundraising

You can raise money for Village Water whenever you shop online  without it costing you a penny.

It's very simple - just visit Easy Fundraising  to register and shop with over 2000 well known retailers like Amazon, Argos, M&S, eBay and many more. Whenever you buy something, the retailer makes a donation to Village Water. They've helped various charities and good causes raise over £2,000,000 so it really does work.

The amount the companies donate varies – it can be a fixed amount or it may be as much as 5% of whatever you spend. Most websites will honour the donation even if you are already one of their customers with an online account, providing you always go to their site via the Easy Fundraising site.

Here’s some of the money our supporters have already raised:

• One of our supporters booked a trip to Istanbul through lastminute.com and raised £14.58 for us by going to EasyFundraising first.
• Another of our supporters bought some books from the Book People and raised £1.31 for us at no cost to himself, as he’d remembered to click at EasyFundraising first.
• One of our trustees raised £2.90 for Village Water by buying a quad cordless phone set from Ligo Electronics Ltd by going to Easy Fundraising first.
• One of our trustees who is a regular customer at Lands End spent £105.50 with them, and because she’d remembered to go via EasyFundraising this time, raised £2.64 in the process for us.

These are relatively small amounts, but if all our supporters use EasyFundraising when they shop online we could raise enough money to transform a village and the lives of the villagers.
So, you need to take a few simple steps:

1. Go to EasyFundraising
2. Choose Village Water as your preferred charity
3. Check out the regular donations and the special offers that can save you money too.
4. Remember always to go to your favourite online shops via EasyFundraising.
