If you've pledged 0.7% of your income in aid to Tearfund, why not challenge Alistair Darling to give it too?

35 years ago the UK government committed to giving 0.7% of its income in overseas aid to some of the world's poorest countries. Aid is vital for poor countries to spend money on vital services for thier people such as access to clean water and sanitation, free education, and free hospitals and medecines.

So why not set the Chancellor an example to follow and tell him 'I'm giving it, please will you?'

Just print off the letter below, or customise it with your own message.

Tell your friends about the 0.7% campaign and get them giving to the poor and challenging our government to do the same too!
