the big give 2012

The Big Give 2012 – We did it!

We were delighted to announce that we reached our target and the grand total for this years Big Give Christmas Challenge currently stands at £7,218!

In just 3 days £3,000 was donated online meaning we could access all our match funding.  This is the second year we have taken part in the Big Give and in spite of the continued harsh economic times, we were amazed that so many people have been motivated to give so much.

Thank you to everyone who pledged and donated, our success is only possible because of you.

All the money raised will help us to continue and expand our work with disabled children living at home with their families in the community.  We are hoping to start a new community Portage service near St Petersburg, and now this dream will become a reality in 2013.

If you didn’t manage to donate, but would like to make a donation, our Big Give page is still open for donations http://new.thebiggive.org.uk/projects/view/13083 until the 31st January 2013.  Your donation will not be matched but we can still benefit from gift aid and all the donations will go towards working with children and their families in our community projects.
