The Big Give Christmas Challenge 2020 for Tabor House

From 1 to 8 December, Father Hudson’s Care will be taking part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge. They will be aiming to raise £17,000 to support the work of Tabor House, a community project managed in partnership with i-Shelter which provides a lifeline of support to those affected by homelessness.

All donations received between these dates will be doubled at no extra cost to you.

One donation, twice the impact

The Big Give runs the UK’s biggest match funding campaign, the Christmas Challenge. For seven days, it offers supporters of participating charities the opportunity to have their donation doubled. Since it launched in 2008, the Christmas Challenge has raised millions of pounds for thousands of charity projects.

We will be raising money for Tabor House, which, despite the pandemic, remains committed to helping those affected by homelessness. In response to the pandemic Tabor has converted their open-plan living space to a number of Perspex pods, to help eliminate any risk of infection spread and maintain social distancing guidelines. Lockdown has also meant that Tabor has transformed from a night shelter to a 24/7 supported accommodation project.

The funding from the Big Christmas Give will help the project continue to work in these unprecedented times. It will also support the development of a second building, which will allow them to work with more guests increasing current capacity from eight to eleven.

Get involved in the Big Give

Between midday on 1 December and midday on 8 December, you can donate via our Big Give Challenge page https://donate.thebiggive.org.uk/campaign/a051r00001fHQi6AAG.

All donations during this time will be doubled thanks to match funding.
