While we might not be able to tackle the root causes of why some people have so much and others have so little, there are practical things that can be done to redress the balance, making an enormous difference to individuals and communities living in extraordinarily difficult circumstances. Our ongoing initiatives, such as Sport For Good and Labels For Good, are long-term projects are designed to create sustained positive impacts in communities by repurposing key essentials including clothing, bedding, footwear, hygiene goods. and toiletries. Each initiative enables our community donors and our corporate partners to support our ongoing efforts in these areas.
In contrast, our campaigns are swift, targeted responses to urgent crises. These include efforts like our Ukraine Relief Fund, established to support those affected by the war in Ukraine, and our Winter campaign in the UK, aimed at assisting elderly individuals and families struggling with financial hardships during the winter months. These campaigns are crucial in providing immediate support and relief to those in dire need.
Together, our initiatives and campaigns embody our commitment to both proactive development and reactive aid, ensuring we can support communities and individuals effectively and compassionately, no matter the circumstances.

Current Appeals and Initiatives
We are in URGENT need of toiletries!
Every month we support thousands of vulnerable people by delivering essential every day items such as toiletries and hygiene goods. But our cupboards are bare and we are in urgent need of toiletries and hygiene goods. Why not arrange a collection with friends, through a community group or in your workplace and help us continue our work, supporting children and families in crisis.
Labels For Good: Tackling Throwaway Fashion
Have you got designer clothes or accessories in your wardrobe that were an impulse buy, don't fit, are brand new or barely worn? Help us put a stop to throwaway fashion and divert goods from landfill by getting involved in our Labels For Good initiative. Donate your handbags and glad rags, your designer or vintage items for our eBay store and help us raise money for good!
Sport For Good: Enhancing Futures Through Sport
It can be hard to understand how much value something as simple as a pair of trainers can have, when clothing and footwear are basics we take for granted. But for many of the people we've helped support, they've provided purpose, hope and healing. That's why in 2021 we launched our Sports For Good initiative.
Emergency Response Fund
Our Emergency Response Fund is a special reserve set up to allow us to respond quickly to SOS appeals, such as the devastating conflict in Ukraine and the recent earthquake in Morocco. Right now, we need support with our work responding to the floods in central Europe.Previous Campaigns
