We are launching a Crowdfunding campaign. Fledge needs to raise £6000 to help get the house set up, to employ a support worker and to ensure we can be sustainable for the first couple of months.This campaign will go 'live' on Thusday. Please share and help us hit our target so we can start housing young people.

Ways you can support Fledge:
|
|
|
|
Fledge needs around £85,000 a year to run. The first few years, until we establish a good track record, are the hardest to raise.
40 people giving £25 a month would ensure the future of our Project Manager for 6 months.
6 churches donating £1,000 would cover the training and support of our mentors for a year
£11 provides one night's accomodation |
|
|
Volunteers receive full training and expenses and have the opportunity to make a real difference to the life of a young person. We need Mentors, Fund-raisers, Trustees, Advocates, and Supported Lodgings Hosts. |

If you wish to make a one off donation here is what your gift could pay for:
£30 buys a duvet and new bedding to set a young person up in their new home
£115 buys a complete starter pack for young people including; bedding, crockery, cutlery, toiletries etc
£100 provides a week of intensive 1:1 support
