You most likely engage with small charities everyday and don’t even notice… ☕ Maybe it’s the cosy local café where you get your morning coffee with a pastry to go, like Luminary Bakery ♻️ Maybe it’s the people who have collected your pre-loved items and redistributed them to those that could give it a second life, like Get Rid Of And Donate 💻 Maybe it’s the coding lessons your children have after school, like CodeBrave 🌳 Maybe it’s the nature walks you enjoy in the park that has been recovered by young people, like Youngwilders ⚖️ Or maybe it’s the story you see on the news about a group of lawyers fighting to overturn a miscarriage of justice, like APPEAL (𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘛𝘍𝘕 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘮𝘯𝘪 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺!) At The Funding Network we have spent the last 20+ years supporting these and many other brilliant small charities, and we see how vital their work is. Small charities are innovative, highly adaptable and resilient, but above all they’re caring. And you know what? We’re proud to be a small charity ourselves. So let’s kick off #SmallCharityWeek and celebrate those shaping our communities for the better! NCVO #ConnectionsThatChangeTheWorld
