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.
Our client has recently been given new accommodation after being in temporary accommodation for over six months, and does not have any white goods for the new home. We are asking for help towards purchasing a cooker. They have recently had an accident, causing broken bones in their arm and, therefore, due to the nature of the role, are unable to carry out this work for the next three months or more.
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200Mum is in desperate need of three curtain poles, two for the lounge and one for her bedroom. She is a victim of domestic abuse and wants to make her home her own, part of this being redecorating her rooms to make her feel safe. Mum has debt that she is trying to pay off and also receives no child maintenance for her two children.
Still £105 left to donate
Total needed £105A was street homeless for a long time before spending eighteen months in hospital due to her mental illness. On her recent discharge, she was allocated a social housing property which is unfurnished. She would greatly benefit from a washing machine as she cannot access a launderette and has a large amount of soiled bedding which needs washing frequently. A, who has no savings and is on benefits, has no family or friends to help her practically or financially, only ongoing support from the mental health team.
