Raising money every day
Welcome to Asda’s charities website where we celebrate our passion for supporting national and local good causes.
In 2008 our customers and colleagues raised over £8 million through a variety of fundraising events and activity both in store and in the local community.
This year we are supporting 5 national charities as well as supporting local good causes in every community our stores and depots serve. The Asda Foundation is our charitable company which also supports local charities and good causes nominated by colleagues.
Last year we raised over £8 million for local and national charities … … but we’d like to raise even more this year!Tickled Pink
To date, Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign has raised over £21 million to help Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer Campaign improve the lives of people living with breast cancer, now and in the future.

Tommy’s
Tommy’s exists to give every baby the best chance of being born healthy. Tommy’s funds vital research to find out why things go wrong in pregnancy and birth, and provides free of charge pregnancy information for all parents-to-be.
We have supported Tommy’s for over 10 years, raising in excess of £2 million for the charity in that time.
BBC Children in Need
Last year Asda colleagues and customers raised a staggering £2.5 million for BBC Children in Need, which helped fund projects across the whole of the UK.
This year we have some fantastic events lined up in store, not forgetting the Appeal night itself, which takes place on the 20th November.
