The Mayor's Fund for London #InYourGift Holiday Appeal

We want to be there for every child, young person, and family that needs support and hope over the holidays. But currently, we can only meet 35% of the increasing demand. We need help to close this gap and reach as many young Londoners as possible.

Throughout the lifetime of a young Londoner, we’re here for them – providing food as a foundation, skills as a springboard, and power through our platform so they can grow, thrive, and shape London into a truly inclusive, more prosperous city. Last year we supported 62,500 young Londoners.

Story

Thanks to our supporters, over 68,000 young Londoners can receive vital support to overcome some of the biggest barriers to their health and happiness, and a safe place to go during school holidays where they can eat together, learn new skills, and access opportunities.

We are here for young Londoners every day of the year, providing food as a foundation, skills as a springboard and power through our platforms so they can grow, thrive, and shape London into a truly inclusive, more prosperous city.

But we know the 13 weeks away from school can be the hardest for children in low-income families. This is when your generosity is so very needed to make sure the holidays are a time for community, development, wellbeing and fun. Not a time to dread because food and activities are unaffordable and inaccessible.

If you donate now, we can respond to the growing demand for vital food and skills provision across London. Will you join us as a supporter of MFL’s #InYourGift holiday appeal?

What those who work with us say:

If I wasn’t on my placement and never knew about MFL, I’d probably just be watching YouTube [all holidays].

You make me and my children feel so comfortable even though we have nothing. You are always there and open and free, and my children get to have space and play and eat.
