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.
K is a single mum with a challenging home life. She has a five year old child with Autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). He trashes her home and urinates around the house, therefore, her carpets are ruined and needed destroying. K can't afford to replace them with a more suitable floor covering, such as vinyl, as her income is low and she has no savings. Could some kind Acts 435 donors help us to make her home more suitable for her and her family? We have flooring that has been provide free of charge, but would be so grateful for help towards the fitting cost.
Still £180 left to donate
Total needed £200K is a full-time carer for her partner who has COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and their child who both have additional needs. They are a low income family and K's only income is Universal Credit. K has no carpets down in multiple rooms and she simply cannot afford to fund the cost of fitting them. Carpets in the property would be a major improvement for all the family, especially K's partner who suffers in cold, damp weather. Any support given would be very gratefully received.
