Donate to ActionAid UK

Every day, millions of women and girls around the world face injustice, violence and discrimination. Too many are struggling to feed their families amid a cost of living crisis - and a rapidly changing climate.

But there is hope. ActionAid is a community-led organisation that works with women and girls on effective, long-term solutions to poverty and violence - like education, training and small loans. These practical policies help women and girls to invest in their futures, claim their rights and become leaders of change in their communities. 

Will you be a part of this long-term change, by making a donation?

ActionAid is an international charity that works with women and girls living in poverty in 40 countries across Asia, Africa and Latin America.

How we use the money you give us

For every £1 we spend:

72p is spent on humanitarian and development programmes and strengthening our global federation

15p is spent on fundraising

10p is spent on support costs (running the organisation)

3p is spent on campaigning for change

These figures are taken from our expenditure in 2021

We’re committed to keeping our supporters happy and being open and honest about how we fundraise. To find out more you can read our supporter promise.

Why we ask for a monthly gift

All money helps, and we’re grateful for whatever you feel you can afford.

A one-off donation is a fantastic start, but the kind of extreme poverty that millions of women and girls are facing are long-term problems, and they need long-term solutions.

A regular gift from you means we can commit to being there for girls like five-year-old Jui in Bangladesh, who desperately need us, both now and in the future.
