Cash for Kids is a grant-giving charity dedicated to supporting vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people. Their mission is to improve the lives of those affected by poverty, illness, neglect, or additional needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to express their individuality, achieve their potential, and live life to the fullest. Working closely with grassroots organisations, Cash for Kids directly supports families who may have nowhere else to turn.
Our partnership with Cash for Kids began with their incredible Mission Christmas campaign, and we are proud to continue this tradition. This campaign ensures that every child wakes up to a gift under the tree on Christmas morning—a simple but powerful way to bring joy to those who need it most. Thanks to the generosity of supporters like you, we can purchase high-quality, brand-new toys and gifts that make Christmas magical for children across Northern Ireland.
But the impact doesn’t stop at Christmas. Cash for Kids works tirelessly year-round to transform the lives of children and young people facing challenges such as poverty, neglect, illness, and additional needs. Their work provides vital support, offering hope and brighter futures to thousands of families.
Together, we’re determined to make this year’s contribution the biggest yet and continue changing lives.

Every donation helps bring us closer to a future where no child is left behind. Let's dig deep for kids and make a difference together!
We are seeking cash donations to allow us to purchase the items most needed by the charity. If you prefer to donate a physical gift, Cash for Kids has outlined the following priorities:
- The greatest need is for gifts suitable for children aged 7–18 years.
- Gender-neutral items and those suitable for a range of ages are highly appreciated.
- Gifts should ideally be priced between £10 and £50.
- All gifts must be new and unwrapped.
Please note that food items, such as selection boxes, cannot be accepted due to allergy concerns.
Your support will make a huge difference in brightening the lives of children in need—thank you for helping us spread the joy!
