The Birdhouse Fund is not one of those charities where you’ve no idea what happens to your money after you have run seventy miles to raise it; or where you’re constantly bombarded with free pens and guilt-inducing newsletters. The Birdhouse Fund is a brand new idea, set up by Manchester women for other local women, who are struggling to achieve their full potential –often because life has dealt them some nasty knocks. This fund will help them to make a new start; whether it’s through training, developing their skills, or supporting them via community projects.

And it’s also about creating a brand new community of women who want to be part of new style of charity, where you feel truly involved, in as big or small as way as you like. It’s about creating a new wave of modern, female philanthropy. That means you’ll see where the money’s going… you might even meet the recipients. You’ll understand the problems you’re helping to solve- and what’s more you’ll have a damn good time while you raise essential cash.

You can raise money for us any way you like and then simply donate it here.
