Fundraising for GIFT
Story
The last two years i have been involved in gift. I have taken all sorts of boys out, special needs, boys struggling in school, boys who feel very lost and unloved...and a very lovely family with 5 wonderful kids who are all very unique. I have learnt how to speak, play, discuss and work with a variety of people through gift.
Gift puts smiles on sad and lost people, from babies to the elderly, I have seen it myself and it's incredible.
Gift has boys and girls helping and visiting all kinds in all areas. This chessed is amazing.
Well done Eliezer Gilbert
The cycle will be split over two days and we plan to ride for over 10 hours. We have been training really hard because GIFT is a charity that is so important to us.
GIFT's twin objectives are to inspire and educate young people to GIVE whilst simultaneously helping those in NEED. Through GIFT, thousands of young volunteers are being inspired to become GIVERS and to make a difference.
We are fundraising for the volunteering branch of GIFT:
GIFT’s volunteers distribute £1000s worth of food, provide tutoring and practical help to
over 200 families, visit patients in hospitals and care homes. Currently GIFT has over 900 active volunteers. On an average week there are at least 300 young volunteers visiting a number of different families, care homes and hospitals.

The families that GIFT supports constantly express how much they appreciate the volunteers
and what a difference they have made to their lives. In addition to this, the volunteers constantly express how this experience has transformed them and how they view the world. We, as volunteers, can agree that the experience has been amazing for us and
we are honoured to be involved in such a great organisation.

In order to recruit more volunteers and sustain the growth of the organisation we urgently need more funds. Please donate now and help us to increase all the amazing work GIFT does!
