Euromonitor International, the world's leading provider for global business intelligence and strategic market analysis, has launched a fundraising partnership with international water charity, Just a Drop. 

Euromonitor is supporting the charity by engaging their own customers. Euromonitor sells all of their market research content, products and services through their website, and will donate 1% from all of its online sales over the next 12 months. Overall, Euromonitor aims to raise £20,000 during the course of the partnership. 

Catherine Dix Corporate Social Responsibility Manager at Euromonitor says, “Euromonitor is thrilled to be partnering with Just a Drop to provide communities with access to safe drinking water.  Collaboration and empowerment are core values to Euromonitor and, the approach Just a Drop takes by, working closely with community partners to ensure the best solution is identified while providing training to ensure ownership and sustainability of the project appealed greatly to the organisation.” 

Fiona Jeffery OBE, Chair and Founder of Just a Drop says, “We are delighted to be chosen as Euromonitor's nominated charity. Their support will bring clean, safe drinking water and suitable sanitation to people in need.  £1 can, on average, bring clean, safe water to a child for nearly ten years and so every customer interaction and ensuing donation from Euromonitor will have a real impact on people's lives and help expand awareness of our cause internationally.  Thank you on behalf of everyone here at Just a Drop.”

About Just a Drop 

• Launched in 1998, Just a Drop is an international water-aid charity which aims to contribute positively to the reduction of child mortality caused through poor sanitation and unsafe water and to actively reduce the numbers of people without access to clean water.
• Working with local partners, at a grassroots level, we provide a local, clean water supply through appropriate engineering solutions to some of the poorest communities in the world.
• The work we support includes safe sanitation and the construction of wells, boreholes, pipelines, hand pumps, sand dams and latrines. We also strive to improve health and sanitation education by encouraging the establishment of WASH (Water and Sanitation Hygiene) programmes to run alongside our work.
• To date, our projects have reached an estimated 1.5 million people in 31 countries from Afghanistan to Zambia.
