Acts 435

Acts 435 is a unique online giving charity that connects people who want to help with those in genuine need, through a trusted network of local churches and charities across the UK.

Our platform allows donors to read real stories of need posted by our partners and give directly to individuals facing hardship. 100% of your donation goes to the recipient's specific need, whether it's for food, furniture, household essentials, or emergency support. You’ll receive a thank you update when the request has been fulfilled, so you can see the impact of your gift.

  • Support urgent needs such as food, school shoes, kitchen appliances, furniture, and more.
  • Help people affected by homelessness, domestic abuse, poverty, and other crises.
  • Donations are distributed quickly—the average time for a need to be fully funded is just 7 days.
  • Acts 435 partners post requests on behalf of people in their communities, ensuring needs are genuine and support is delivered safely.

How it works:

  • Local churches and charities become Acts 435 partners.
  • Partners post urgent needs for people in their community.
  • Donors read stories and give through the Acts 435 website.
  • Partners deliver the item or support directly to the person in need.

Since launching, Acts 435 has helped over 58,000 individuals and distributed more than £7 million in aid. Every penny you give goes directly to the person in need—no fees are deducted from your donation.
