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.

L is a single woman who receives Personal Independence Payment due to her mental health issues including autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and bi-polar. Her electricity meter readings were inaccurately read by the fuel company for six months, which has led to a debt accruing. There is still £350 outstanding, but L can meet the remainder amount of £150 arrears. This money will, therefore, allow her to clear her fuel debt before the winter.
