“I am very, very grateful… Working for charities has not always been well paid, without the many benefits that other jobs offer. No one can take away the satisfaction that supporting the vulnerable can bring though… To get recognition and support in this small way from CEBF has given me great comfort, and value.”

The Charity Employees Benevolent Fund supports individuals who are or have been in paid employment with a registered UK charity, and their families. Every applicant receives expert advice and guidance and most also receive emergency financial support in the form of one-off small grants.
The hard work of people who work for charities makes a difference to millions of people. When times are tough, however, they are more vulnerable than most to serious financial hardship in times of illness, disability, bereavement and other unexpected disaster.
