The Big Give have confirmed that they have match funding for health & disability charities to apply to this year’s Christmas Challenge campaign.

The Christmas Challenge helps UK-registered charities raise funds for their cause. It offers them the opportunity to access funding and to incentivise donors by doubling donations on theBigGive.org.uk when the campaign goes live on #GivingTuesday, 28th November 2017.

Since the Big Give launched the campaign in 2008, the Christmas Challenge has raised over £78 million for more than 2,800 charity projects.

Applications for the Christmas Challenge 2017 open on Monday 5th June 2017. Charities can register their interest in taking part now.  We recommend reading all about the campaign too so you are well prepared.

The benefits of the campaign:

  • Access to funding from our generous Champions
  • A powerful incentive to donors to have their donations doubled
  • Attract new supporters (95% of charities did so in the 2016 campaign)
  • Opportunity to build confidence in fundraising and digital marketing skills through campaign support
  • Raising charity profile and joining others to raise awareness - the campaign receives high profile support and national media coverage

Charities can now apply here

The Big Give would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have about participating in the campaign. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch via info@thebiggive.org.uk. Please indicate who shared the opportunity with you.
