Corporate fundraising at Christmas

Show people who are homeless that someone still cares

By fundraising for Porchlight this Christmas, you and your colleagues can help turn someone's life around.

Christmas should be a time for friends and family, food and warmth. But this year, the cost of living emergency could make hundreds of people in Kent homeless in the coming months. This is happening as funding for Porchlight’s hostels and housing support is being cut.

We’re here to let people facing homelessness know that someone cares and to give them the help they need to put their lives back together.

By fundraising for Porchlight this Christmas, you and your colleagues can be part of this work, while you enjoy some of the togetherness that the festive season brings.
