Our Big Give Campaign has kicked off!
7 Days of fundraising begins today!
This month we’re taking part in the Big Give campaign, Arts for Impact, from 19th to 26th March, and we need your support more than ever. As part of this campaign, the amount you donate will be matched by the Big Give. This will double the donation we receive, and in turn, double the difference you can make. Read on below to find out what the difference your donation could make to our organisation:
Since 2013 we have been an independent charitable trust relying on a mixture of private and public sector income. The FFAT team work tirelessly to fundraise, to design programs that are relevant to as many people as possible and to put Hull on the map as a cultural city. We work hard to remove barriers to accessing the arts that so many people face, bringing amazing theatre to the streets and public spaces of Hull, creating innovative participatory programs for children and young people to engage in arts and creativity, allowing them to make new friends, gain confidence in working in a group, empowering them to have their ideas and voices heard and creativity celebrated.
We need your help to continue to do what we do – in these unprecedented times it has never been more challenging to raise funds for the arts and particularly the work that we do to ensure that world-class cultural programs can be free-to-access and to enjoy. Public funds are harder to attract, private sector investment is also under pressure and the challenge of keeping so many of our programs free-to-access is more difficult.
If you can donate to our campaign your money will allow us to bring even more opportunities to engage with the arts for children, families, and young people in Hull. This investment will truly change lives, inspire future generations, and allow participants to gain valuable life skills through our projects.
Donations between 19th and 26th March are doubled up to the value of £2.5k, this means that every donation we receive up to our target of £2.5k will be matched by the Big Give.
Thank you for everything you did for my children that attended the Freedom Festival. It was fantastic to see them flourish throughout the 4 days and to see them interacting with people that they didn’t know and following what they needed to be doing was just amazing” Headteacher - Longhill Primary School
