“My point of this mail to you, is that your help, £250, changed my life. I had every household bill under the sun coming at me and please, I have no debts, other than my Mother’s funeral … ‘The fact you gave me money to help me, transformed my outlook on life. You lifted an enormous pressure from me, I felt valued, not just another NI no out of work.”

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.
