Christmas should be a time of warmth, wonder and excitement. But for many children and young people supported by Befriend a Child, the festive season can feel very different. When life is already filled with uncertainty and challenges, Christmas can bring added worries, and many children may not even have a gift to open on Christmas morning.
Our Giving Tree Appeal gives you the opportunity to help make Christmas brighter for a local child. You can pick up a gift tag from one of our Giving Tree Partners, purchase a gift and deliver it to Befriend a Child HQ, or choose a gift virtually through our Amazon Wishlist. Every gift donated will help bring a little more joy, excitement and Christmas magic to a child who needs it most.
Would your business, workplace or organisation like to support our Giving Tree Appeal? We would love to hear from you!
Giving Tree Partners help us spread a little Christmas magic by displaying a Giving Tree and inviting customers, colleagues or members of their community to donate a gift. You can also take part virtually, helping us promote the appeal and encourage donations without needing to host a physical Giving Tree.
If you would like to find out more about becoming a Giving Tree Partner, get in touch with our team via the button below and we’ll be happy to tell you more about how you can get involved.
Christmas isn’t just about what happens on Christmas morning. You can also help create lasting memories and exciting experiences for local children and young people throughout 2027.
By making a monetary donation towards an experience, you can help provide opportunities for the children we support to enjoy new adventures, try something different and create happy memories alongside their volunteer befriender or mentor. Whether it’s an exciting day out, a fun activity or a new experience they’ve never had before, your donation can give a child something special to look forward to in the year ahead.
Your donation could help turn a future day out into a memory they remember for years to come.
