The Childhood Trust is London’s child poverty charity, funding over 180 grassroots charities to run projects that support 260,000+ vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people annually throughout London. The Trust achieves this through their fundraising campaigns, corporate volunteering programmes and advocacy on the issue of child poverty. By bringing companies, philanthropists and other donors together they ensure that resources are directed to exactly where they are needed. Without these projects, life for many thousands of children trapped in poverty in London would be dramatically worse.
