How your gift helps

  • £50 can provide school shoes and uniforms for a child
  • £100 can go towards essential household items for families
  • £250 can help furnish a home for someone starting in a new place

Your generosity can change lives in Thanet.

You can donate in four different ways: with a one-off donation, as a regular Friend of Cheerful Sparrows, in honour of someone special or to offer your own legacy.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps us continue our vital work. And when you opt-in to Gift Aid, this lets us claim a further 25p in every £1 – at no extra cost to you.

Use the form below, or if you prefer to donate via cheque, please make it payable to ‘The Cheerful Sparrows Thanet’. Thank you!

Help to buy fridge + washing machine

I want to say how grateful I am. After being rejected by other charities, the Council and DWP, I was worrying how to cope with two children as a single parent living off student finance. Your work does change lives, it gives hope when people are at their most fragile and have nowhere to turn. Please continue, because people like me need your kindness.

Sensory toys for an autistic child

The items have been received and look great. Mum was extremely grateful for the tent and the toys! The child was sitting in the tent when I arrived and spent most of the time in there! Thank you ever so much.
