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.

This family whose eldest daughter has autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is non-verbal and can be dysregulated, spends time on a device in order to rest from communication after school so they can enjoy family later. The family have two children and three step-children. This girl's iPad has sadly been broken by her brother. Her parents can't cover the cost of the iPad, due to limited funds. Their stepchildren, who they collect from one hundred miles away, stay with them every weekend so they are spending large amounts of money on petrol.
Still £150 left to donate
Total needed £150We are delighted that M, an ex-offender we are supporting, has recently set up as a self-employed delivery driver, following some years out of work. However, his initial outgoings have been extremely high, as he has had to pay rent on the van he is using, as well as covering his own fuel - all before his first pay. As a result, M has got nothing left to pay for much needed PPE (a reflective coat, trousers and safety boots). Please could you help with these vital items to keep M safe and in work?
