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 young woman recently obtained a council flat and the existing floor coverings are effectively non-existent. She was made redundant before Christmas and is trying to find full-time employment, but has only currently managed to find part-time work and has a benefit claim pending. Whilst floor coverings are being supplied to her, this young woman cannot afford to have them fitted. Your help in funding this would make a huge difference to her and transform where she lives. Thank you.
Still £135 left to donate
Total needed £200R has recently had to move, due to a no fault eviction. His new property has no carpets anywhere upstairs, meaning it is cold, damp and unsafe for his children. R's only income is Universal Credit and he has no savings. We have an offer of free carpets and just need help with fitting costs.
Still £190 left to donate
Total needed £200S lives in a council property in which the condition of the flooring is not good, and is not suitable for her and her family. She is receiving Universal Credit, but is struggling to make ends meet. For this reason, your generosity would be greatly appreciated to support S in carpeting her home. She needs support to pay the fee for a contractor to fit the carpets and the remaining costs, materials etc. are provided for free.
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200J, a care leaver who has just moved into his first home, has had to set up from scratch with very little.

A charity are able to provide free flooring coverings if the kind people of Acts 435 can help with the fitting costs. Thank you.
