What is the First Days 500 Collective?
The First Days 500 Collective has been set up to bring together like-minded donors who are committed to making a big positive difference to local children living in poverty.
We can make a bigger impact working together so it has been designed for supporters of First Days who can give a minimum amount of £500 or more annually to facilitate our vital work.
A bigger donation can truly make changes for First Days.
First Days were able to help 7,951 children in 2022.
We could do so much more with long term funds in place.
All our work endeavors to restore choice, dignity and autonomy to parents over what they provide for their children.
We believe that prevention of poverty, inequality and destitution is far better than treating the problem once it is established. To that end, we are developing new services to offer more meaningful and relational support to families in poverty so that they can develop the resilience and sustainability to not need our support in the future.
We're asking for you to be part of something bigger than any one of us to really make a direct difference to children’s lives.
We can all recognise our privilege and use it by joining our collective to help others.
We will work together to end child poverty in the UK.
You can join our community and make a generous donation here, or by cheque, direct debit/standing order or credit card. Please register your interest by email to fundraising@firstdays.net
