What is it?
The Big Give Christmas Challenge is the U.K's largest matched funding campaign. For seven days each year, it offers supporters of participating charities the opportunity to have their donation doubled on theBigGive.org.uk.
How does it work?
Between 12pm Tuesday 27th November and 12pm Tuesday 4th December any donation made to North London Cares through the Big Give Christmas Challenge website will be doubled.
That means your £10 will become £20, £20 will become £40... meaning that with one donation, you can make twice the difference!
How will my donation help?
We're raising money to make our North London Cares' Winter Wellbeing project possible.
Through this project we will:
Knock on the doors of over 600 older neighbours to check they are keeping warm, active, healthy and connected - and to let them know we’re thinking of them and here should they need support.
Deliver hot water bottles, blankets or thermal items to older neighbours homes.
Signpost older neighbours to organisations who can help with keeping their homes warm and safe, give benefits advice and help reduce bills.
Arrange small grants for people in difficult circumstances who are struggling to keep their home warm.
Connect older neighbours to social activities in their area
We want to raise £4,000 in seven days, which will be doubled to make £8,000, and we need your help to make it happen.
