Action Change (Formally GVI Trust) Save Our Charity: COVID Emergency Appeal
PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Since March 2020 we have been on one massive rollercoaster. Our number one priority was our projects and so we decided to shut up the office, head home to stay safe but continue to work around the clock raising funds to provide thousands of meals to families in need, fund PPE for front line projects and we funded domestic violence help centres. It's been a challenge but we did it. We now face hard times and for the first time in 16 years we appeal to you for help to keep us going in 2021.
