WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT THIS CHRISTMAS:
There are lots of different ways you can help make a Christmas to remember for our vulnerable children and young people
MAKE A DONATION:
This year we are having to cope with the increasing number of children who live in such abject poverty that without us they would have no warm clothes, and no food or presents at Christmas. Any contribution you can make to ourChristmas Appealwill help our desperate race to raise enough money to keep our emergency safeguarding helpline open for 24 hours a day over the Christmas period. We need to provide 24 hour support to cope with the high level of distress calls we receive from the most vulnerable of our children and you can help us to make sure no one feels abandoned.
TAKE PART IN ICAP's CHARITY DAY:
Kids Company is thrilled to announce that we have been selected to be part of ICAP's Charity Day on Wednesday 5th December 2012.
On this one day, ICAP, the world's largest inter dealer broker, gives away 100% of its revenues and commissions to its chosen charities. The money raised on the day will generate desperately needed funds to support the critical work of our safeguarding department and our Colour a Child's Life' programme.
We are hoping that together we can help make ICAP Charity Day's 20th year the best yet!

If you like your Christmas gifts with a side of good deed, our partnerships with some fantastic brands such as Selfridges, Folli Follie, Liberty, eBay and Rococo could be just the thing you're looking for.
