Although we are operating with limited funds due to the current restraints put on our fundraising by the COVID-19 Virus, Charlie's Gift has fortunately still been able to support a number of wonderful children across the Three Counties region.

This week Charlie's Gift has funded a special needs buggy for lovely little 4 year old Daisy from Hemel Hempstead, who has many health complications and is unable to walk independently, because of a rare genetic disorder. Daisy's mum Carrie wanted you all to know what a difference your generous donations and fundraising make to local families like Daisy's:-
Our darling Charlie would have been 18 years old today and it seems fitting that this year on his milestone birthday it has been our most successful year of grant-making to date, with a life-changing £53,624.72 donated to 95 very deserving local children, since the start of 2019. On behalf of Charlie and our family, we’d like to thank everyone who has supported Charlie’s Gift throughout the year through your tireless fundraising, generous donations and also attending our events. You are all amazing...
So proud to announce that this month Charlie's Gift has reached a milestone goal of awarding over £150,000 in grants since our charity's registration in 2013! More importantly this means that over the past 6 years we have been able to support 178 amazing local families and children's groups across Herts, Beds and Bucks. It is only with the ongoing support of the local community that we have been able to make a difference to lives some very deserving children, who face many difficult challenges on a daily basis.
