Fife Gingerbread is a voluntary sector organisation that provides information, advice and support service to lone parents and families in need all over Fife. Throughout all projects our ethos is the same: Engage – Support – Progress.

Story

We are now into our third year of the Day2Play appeal - raising money to support families to share special times together. For many families, the current cost of living crisis means they are struggling with paying the bills, and budgeting restraints mean that holidays and days out are out of reach.

By helping us provide experiences and days out for families you can help give children, right here in Fife, a Summer to remember whatever the weather- every penny raised will be used to help families in need during School holidays.

The additional pressure of school holidays can really be difficult to navigate for families we support- time constraints with work for lone parents, lack of finances, isolation and mental health issues can mean some children spend those weeks at home.

Play and new experiences are vital to help children thrive and grow, so a trip to the Zoo, playtime on the beach or a journey on the train can make a huge difference. Our projects run groups throughout the holidays that allow parents to give their children the opportunities that all families deserve, with a little help.

Poverty affects every school across Fife, every playground- let’s give children the memories they deserve and love.

How your donations make a difference

£50 - gives a family of three train tickets and ice creams at the beach

£100 – allows one of our projects to hire a hall and purchase art and craft supplies

£500- a day trip for families with bus hire and tickets.

Your support is so welcomed and appreciated- thank you!
