If you choose Befriend a Child as your charity partner you will be helping to ensure that we can continue supporting children and young people facing difficult life circumstances across Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire. You will not only be helping to raise funds, but you will be increasing awareness about our programmes and projects which can result in an increase in volunteer sign ups. Our volunteers are vital for the work that we do. Through providing a positive adult role model and positive life experiences our volunteers help children and young people build confidence and self-esteem as well as develop new life interests and skills. In time this can have a transformational effect. Most importantly they allow them to be a child. As our partner you will be helping to turn frowns upside down.
