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.

This single mum attended our foodbank and spoke with our advisor. Mum and her eighteen month old son have just been allocated their first property. Currently managing on benefits, she hopes to soon get a job again. This lady has been very proactive in looking at different ways to afford things, but now she is living alone and is feeling the stress of the financial burden that comes with that. £200 would enable her to choose a sofa and cushions that suit their needs and makes it feel more like home.
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200I was able to chat with M who is a single mum with two children. She came to the UK to claim asylum and was granted private life in the UK. Mum is unable to work, due to health issues, but she volunteers at a local donation hub which helps others who are in need. M would be very grateful to have a good sized mini oven as she has no cooker in her home. Some utensils and somewhere to stand the mini oven on would be very much appreciated. Thank you for reading this.
