Thames Water organised fundarising events to help WaterAid
In 2009/2010, Thames Water hosted various fundraising events for its principle charity WaterAid, raising a grand total of £2,541,688 in funds.
Some of the notable fundraising events organized by Thames Water include: a “Love Water Ball”, which rose over £630,000 for WaterAid in 2009 alone; an annual raft race for Thames Water employees and business partners on the River Thames; and a WaterAid lottery, which raised over £42,100 in 2009/2010.
Thames Water has also looked at innovative ways of fundraising for WaterAid whilst delivering other corporate responsibility initiatives. For example, profits made from their “London On Tap” campaign all were donated to WaterAid.
