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.

B, a single mum to two children, has recently been given leave to remain. She has left her National Asylum Support Service (NASS) accommodation and moved into temporary accommodation. B is currently waiting for her benefit claim to come through and is struggling financially to manage, so is living off foodbanks and the kindness of charities, whilst her benefit claim comes through. B is struggling to afford a washing machine, as there isn't one available to her, and a vacuum cleaner to keep her flat clean. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
Still £80 left to donate
Total needed £150D is an asylum seeker who has fled her homeland, due to abuse. She is struggling to buy herself food, personal products and warm winter clothing, and has no family to support her with essential items. D has a friend who lives in another town and does not see her very often. Support to buy a monthly bus pass over the Christmas period, to ensure she is not alone, will really help D with support to help her deal with the trauma she has experienced.
