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.

W, who is a dad to two young children, has worked all of his life in various jobs, sometimes holding down two jobs. He found himself out of work, due to Covid-19, and turned to illegal activity to prevent him from getting into debt. W finished his sentence earlier this year and moved to a new area to start afresh, but lost his right to work documents. He is eager to get back into work and put this difficult period behind him, but has no money to pay for the ID. Please can you help W?

Total needed £35S has been out of work for over a year after his last job ended, due to a disagreement with his boss. Prior to this, he had had a thirty year career which ended with convictions, due to addiction, and he has since been struggling to get into work. Sadly, in the last year S has also lost his right to work documents and so cannot start work without them. With our support, we are confident we can support him back into work. Please can you help cover the cost?

Total needed £150Safe Families are supporting an Iranian refugee who arrived in the UK in the summer 2023, with his twelve year old son. They have recently been rehoused and do not have a vacuum cleaner, microwave or all of the kitchen equipment that they need, such as cutlery and crockery. The family is on a low income and does not have the finances to equip the home. We would love to provide them with a voucher so dad can prioritise his and his son’s requirements, and purchase some items for their new home.
