Fundraise this Summer

A Summer of Hope Start With You

A Summer of Hope Starts With You

Fundraise with The Salvation Army and help give children and families a summer to remember. Summer should be a time of joy, friendship and new experiences. But for many families across the UK, the school holidays can bring hunger, isolation and financial pressure. Without school meals and safe places to go, some children face long, lonely, and difficult summers.

Together, we can change that.

Tommy’s Story

Tommy is 10 years old and has experienced domestic abuse and extreme poverty. After leaving an unsafe home, life felt uncertain and overwhelming. Through The Salvation Army, Tommy found a safe community, support and activities that helped him rebuild confidence. This summer, he will attend his first residential camp, making friends, trying new things and enjoying being a child again. Your support can help more children like Tommy experience a summer filled with hope.
