Story

Making The Leap, an innovative grassroots societal change charity based in London, aims to transform the futures of less-advantaged young people in the UK by providing training to boost their aspirations and develop their skills, confidence, and outlook in choosing and succeeding with a career.

Inspired by this amazing work, Howard Kennedy employees selected Making The Leap as their Charity of the Year for 2022-24 to support though giving, fundraising and volunteering. If you are a Howard Kennedy employee, please connect your own fundraising page to this one- or use it to make a donation!

How your fundraising can transform futures:

£10 could cover the travel costs of one young person to attend a group employer insight visit to raise their aspirations and increase their understanding of different business sectors.

£50 could enable two secondary school students to experience their first mock interview with a volunteer from the business world to improve their confidence and employability skills.

£100 could provide one young person with a career mentor supporting them to access life changing employment opportunities.
