02 Activities

What the charity does

Relief of needs for the public benefit of people socially excluded primarily, but not exclusively by reason of financial hardship. We'll achieve this through the provision of grants, goods and services. We will support the socially excluded whose needs are the greatest. At Gift Support Network, we know that social exclusion and financial needs are inextricably linked. We'll work to mitigate both.
