Active fundraising campaigns

Surrey Young Carers

Surrey Young Carers provide tailored support to children and young adults throughout the county who are caring for a family member with a disability, chronic illness, mental health issue or addiction.

SYC provide 1:1 support, opportunities to connect with other young carers through group sessions, and organise outings to give young carers with a break from their caring role.

WaterAid

Help us support WaterAid's work providing clean water and sanitation, to millions of people in need every year. One in ten people in the world still do not have access to clean water close to home. Together we can change this.

Beekeeper Training in Liberia

In Liberia 70% of the population earns a living from agriculture at an average yearly income of $450/year, which makes beekeeping the ideal complementary skill. Since 2011 the Universal Outreach Foundation (UOF) has worked to develop a locally produced honey industry in Liberia, training farmers to become beekeepers, and establishing the Liberia Pure Honey social enterprise to ensure a long-term market for the honey produced. To date more than 1000 Liberian beekeepers have been trained.

At present all honey produced is sold on the local market, where demand currently outstrips supply, both as a food and a medicinal product. The Liberia Pure Honey social enterprise ensures that all honey produced by farmers trained by UOF can be quality controlled, harvested, and made available on the market, securing a long-term farm to market cycle.

Help us support their work creating jobs for families in need.
