Campaigns & Events
On this page, you will be able to link your events & campaigns to your own fundraising pages. Please contact James Wilde at James@GlobalH2O.org and we will work to quickly establish your own personal fundraising page with links to your own online donation tool.
How does this work?
Write an email to us stating the following:
Your name
Description of the campaign. Is it an event? What kind of event? Is it selling something? What are you selling? Where will all of this take place? What time? If you intend to create a sporting event, we will need to know that it is insured (we will need to have copies of the details of the insurance policy before we approve).
What would you like to name your campaign?
What is your intended fundraising goal?
Do you have specific donation levels? What are they?
If you have content and pictures for publication on your page, please send it to us.
Suggestions for Campaigns
Climb a mountain
Our first campaign was created by the founder, James Wilde, who dedicated his climb up Everest to Global H2O. His efforts were not only focused on summit but donations were pledged based on altitude meters/ feet gained, people bought stones he brought back from the North Col as well as his used oxygen bottles. He also sold Tshirts. See Everest 2010 under Campaigns & Events to view the charity’s first online campaign.
Compete in a triathalon, run a marathon or 10K
Many people challenge themselves every year by getting in shape for that big race. Why not do it for a good cause as well? We have found research that shows that people follow through more often on such personal challenges when they couple the training with a fundraiser for charity. Ask your friends to pledge per kilometer or simply based on completion. Their virtual participation will generate lots of excitement.
Concerts & Exhibitions
Are you a budding or even established musician? We welcome all artists and their efforts to make a difference in the world. We can work together with your band, manager or gallery to make the necessary resources flow. The publicity will certainly be mutually beneficial.
Schools sponsoring water for schools
Were you interested in teaching children the importance of philanthropy? There is not a better way to do so than by getting you school involved in sponsoring a water project for another school in need. There are hundreds of schools which have no access to clean drinking water. See our school project page.

Upon completion of the project, one of our team will be happy to fly to your school to present a slide show on the development and results.
Everyone love a good car wash!
Get your friends together this summer and have some fun in the sun. During the car wash, make people aware of the amount of water they are using and the relation to those in need that they are helping with their donation!
The ideas are limitless. If you have an idea, we will make the campaign happen from our side!
