Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page.
We've joined together to raise money for Action for Children by sleeping out in Leeds on October 5th - and yes it rained!!
Every year, 83,000 young people find themselves without a place to stay. 1 in 7 homeless young people will have been physically or sexually abused and 1 in 3 will try to commit suicide. I’m giving up my bed for one night to make a positive difference to these young people’s lives. Action for Children supports 370,000 children, young people, their families and carers, and last year Byte Night raised over £1.3 million to support this vital work.
A donation of just £5 could pay for a hot meal for a homeless young person. £10 can buy a set of pots and pans to help a formerly homeless young person start to build their own home. By donating £18, you could pay for a warm shower and hygiene kit to help a young person prepare for interviews.
Anything you can donate will be very much appreciated.
Thank you for your support.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
