Give to someone in need
Acts 435 is about giving to people directly, to help them bridge the gap when they are facing a financial crisis.
Can you help a specific person in need?
Read stories of the applicants below and give as you feel able. Any amount will make a big difference to someone who is struggling.
You can instead make a general donation and the Acts 435 team will allocate it to the most urgent requests.
J is a single mum with five children who has recently escaped from a twelve year long domestic violence relationship. The family have been living in a safe house, but now have their own home. Mum is dependent on basic benefits as she has pre-school children and suffers with anxiety as a result of the domestic violence. J has no savings, as she was not allowed to have her own money. Her tumble dryer is irreparably broken and she desperately needs a new one to dry the considerable laundry from her five children.
