Community impact
Our community impact making a difference to millions of lives. We play a vital role for the communities we support and have an impact on society from the way that we deliver services to the way we operate within the community. Also the real difference that our charuty makes for others, including the positive changes that we help our beneficiaries achieve, as well as the wider effect this has for communities, government, and society at large.
Why are we crowdfunding?
We need crowdfunding because the number of people coming tour organisations for support has risen exponentially since Covid pandemic and is still increasing. Many of the people asking for our support are first-time service users: savings and resilience exhausted, challenges growing, and hope ebbing away as they teeter on the edge. Even settled and secure home lives can be affected by unexpected events or hidden problems: crisis, loss, insecurity, mental health challenges, or abuse. People living in these situations can be anyone.
With your support, our services help anyone and everyone overwhelmed by crisis, whether it's at tipping point or deeply rooted challenges. We provide wellbeing and essentials for living: food, warmth and safety; access to support through advocacy, advice and referral; and we are there for people, so they don't struggle alone, helping them to recover and thrive once again. We help people take back control of their lives, their wellbeing, their finances and their safety. Much of our support is community funded by people helping people.
