Story
This global pandemic is a crisis for everyone, but for the vulnerable young people of Birmingham it is especially intense - particularly care leavers, sick and disabled young people and those on zero hours contracts. We have temporarily extended our grant fund to provide small hardship grants to bridge the gap until sickness and unemployment benefits kick in or other support arrives. We are working with our supporter key workers so that this fund is specifically targeted to young people with nowhere else to turn and no other sources of support. The more cash we raise over the next few weeks, the more young people in the city we will be able to help. Please dig deep and help us to support the young people rendered destitute by Covid-19... Thank you.
