When local families need support, small charities like The Red Hen Project are often the first to step in.
We work alongside children and families across Cambridge, building trusted relationships, offering practical support and helping stop challenges from escalating. We see every day how the right support, at the right time, can change a child’s future.
But the reality is this: small charities are being asked to do more with less.
Demand for support continues to rise, yet charities like The Red Hen Project often struggle to access the funding needed to keep delivering the local, life-changing work families rely on. That is why Small Charity Week matters and why your support matters too.
Because when you support The Red Hen Project, you are investing directly in children and families in your community.
You are helping a child feel more confident at school. Helping a parent feel less alone. Helping families access support before problems reach crisis point. The impact is local, visible and lasting.
And this year, there is a simple way to get involved.
With the World Cup creating excitement in workplaces and communities, why not turn it into something that gives back?
An office sweepstake. A football shirt day. A score prediction challenge. A friendly five-a-side match. Small ideas that bring people together and raise vital funds for local families.
You do not need to organise something huge to make a meaningful difference.
For local businesses, this is also a chance to make a real contribution to your ESG, sustainability or social value goals. Supporting The Red Hen Project is an opportunity to invest directly in your local community while bringing colleagues together around a shared purpose.
Whether it is a donation, a fundraising activity or choosing us as your local charity partner, your support helps us continue walking alongside families who need us most.
