Coming soon… Small Charity Week

There's less than one week to go until this year's Small Charity Week starts on Monday 22nd June, the perfect opportunity to share the impact small charities (those with income under £1 million) make in the UK and overseas. 

For the first time, we're incredibly excited to confirm we're participating in the week's special Big Give donation matching appeal, raising money for the projects we support in and around the city of Kampala, led by our local partner, SAFE Uganda.

SAFE Uganda is determined to reduce the number of children abandoned on the city’s streets where they face abuse, trafficking and exploitation. Their work strengthens community support systems and improves child safeguarding and wellbeing.

All donations made on our dedicated page between 22nd & 29th June will be matched by the People's Postcode Lottery until we reach our £5,000 target.

If we reach our target, your donations will:

  • Support 20 children at the Nsimbe Safe House for four months, caring for their emotional, physical and educational needs until they are ready to return to a secure family or foster home.

  • Run a monthly, weekend 'SAFE Hub' for 30 children at Nsimbe from within the neighbouring community, to encourage children to become advocates for children's rights while integrating play and skills-based activities.

  • Run a children's rights community awareness forum - for over 100 adults and children - with the dual purpose of equipping children with safety advice, and providing caregivers with information about protecting their children.

We'll share a further update at midday on Monday 22nd June when the appeal page goes live, but in the meantime:
