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 has been engaging with our community centre and activities for about a month, has recently been given a one bedroom flat after living within hostels for years. He had absolutely nothing to furnish it with and is only on £279.00 a month of Universal Credit. We have given W a single mattress, and the beautiful souls at our centre have donated kitchen utensils, a microwave and a small sofa. He desperately needs an electric cooker, so it would be a joy if any donations towards one are given by Acts 435.
Still £200 left to donate
Total needed £200F has a family of three children, aged fourteen, nine and six years old, and a husband with a serious health condition which means he can no longer work. The family has recently been moved into the local area and F has visited our community hub to seek support with setting up their new home. We've managed to get them a second-hand washing machine, sofas and cooking equipment, but mum would really like a microwave oven to help with the family meals. Any donations towards this would be gratefully appreciated.
