📚 Fund a book for a child in emergency care in the UK
Domestic abuse remains a significant yet underreported issue in the UK, compelling tens of thousands of children into emergency accommodation each year. The Buddy Bag Foundation steps in to offer solace during these turbulent times by providing Buddy Bags—comfort kits tailored for different age groups and genders.
A critical component of these kits is a reading book. These books serve as a distraction and a form of emotional comfort. Children, whether in the chaos of escaping violence or the unsettling quiet of a refuge, can immerse themselves in a different world, if only for a little while. These books, carefully chosen to suit the age of the child, can be a source of comfort.
Use our editor to write a message for your loved one.
We’ll print your message on the inside of the greetings card so your gift is ready to be given.
Then we’ll call up our favourite postie to hand deliver your impact to your loved one.
Our model’s a little different - we work with impact partners on the ground to keep things transparent and effective. These partners are local community organisations and small charities who can get your impact action done in the most efficient way. And rest easy knowing these partners are thoroughly vetted each year to make sure your impact is truly making a difference.
Now for the best part: seeing your impact in action! About 6-12 months after you send your impact, we’ll pop you (and your recipient if you’ve given us their email) an update. This could include text, images, and videos showing how your thoughtful impact has helped transform lives. Who knew giving could feel so good?
