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.
K has been referred to Romero by her debt worker to ask for our help. She is in financial hardship and cannot afford to repay debts that have mounted up. K has also recently had a baby, but he is in temporary care until mum can get her life back on track. K is under extreme stress which is impacting on her mental health. If you can help us to support her to apply for a Debt Relief Order, mum can begin to get her life back on track and look to a brighter future for her son and herself.
Still £85 left to donate
Total needed £90J has three young children and is also the carer for his partner, who has mental health problems. He has worked with Christians Against Poverty to try to put his day-to-day finances on an even keel, but he has no prospect of repaying the debt incurred while his partner was in hospital. A Debt Relief Order has been recommended to help J with his efforts to support his family. He can't afford the fee and would be most grateful for help with this from Acts 435.
Still £65 left to donate
Total needed £90K is being supported by the Community Mental Health team. He is socially isolated, due to an increased level of paranoia and anxiety, and has seen a decline in his physical health, due to a lack of exercise. After some recent visits which have been more positive, K has agreed to engage with a year-long social exercise programme which will help address both needs. However, he has limited access to funds, so can't afford to pay for this himself. Your support would help his confidence and health.
