Each year, our projects reach over 3000 young people, helping them to transform their lives and start on the journey towards realising their potential and ambition. But, to change a life costs money – whether it’s 50p for a game of pool that will help a vulnerable and troubled young person trust and open up to their key-worker, or £5,000 to help 5 young people re-connect with education, stay at school and complete their GCSE ’s, every penny really does make an important contribution help to change lives.
All the money raised by the Life Change Fund goes towards the costs of running the vital ife-changing projects on offer at Guildford YMCA . You can be sure that every penny raised will be directed to where it is most needed. So, where could your donation help?
