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.

J, who lives on her own and receives benefits, is subject to the benefit cap, due to high rent. She has managed to maintain her rent, but it leaves her with very little to live on and she has to use food banks for support. J has multiple health problems and is currently not putting her heating on as she can't afford to top-up, so is very cold. She isn't able to have a washing machine so has extra costs for this as well. Your support to assist her with a food voucher and heating would be really helpful to her.
Still £150 left to donate
Total needed £150F, who is single and lives on his own in a council flat, recently lost his job and is living on a very tight budget. He receives Universal Credit, however, this leaves him with only £20 to live on after bills have been paid. F heavily relies on a foodbank to get his groceries, due to how little he has left. His bed has broken and he cannot afford to replace it. Your support with £175 will help him to buy a replacement. Please can you kindly help with this donation?
