Donate to ActionAid UK

Your donation could help a girl who has nothing

By donating to ActionAid, you could help us be there for a girl like Shoheeda.

Shoheeda is a Rohingya refugee and, like at least 700,000 others from Myanmar, her life has been torn apart by violence. She was forced to leave behind everything she knew to seek refuge in a camp in Bangladesh.

But your donation could change everything for a girl like Shoheeda. You could help keep her safe from violence and abuse. You could support her to stay in school. You could help provide sanitary protection so she can manage her periods safely.

ActionAid is on-the-ground delivering crucial aid to refugees like Shoheeda, and we won’t stop until every woman and girl is out of danger, out of poverty and on track to create the future they deserve. Please donate today.

What ActionAid does

ActionAid is an international charity that works with women and girls living in poverty. The denial of their rights is one of the biggest causes of poverty worldwide, and a grave injustice. That’s why we put the rights of women and girls at the heart of all we do.

Our dedicated local staff are helping end violence against women and girls and changing lives, for good. We won’t stop until women and girls are out of danger, out of poverty and on track to create the future they want.

We focus on women and girls. Because when they unlock their potential and claim their rights, they can change the course of their lives, and the lives of their families, forever.

We partner with women, giving them the tools and skills to help themselves, and fight what holds them back.
Through our long-standing child sponsorship programme, we give children and their communities better prospects for the future.
We work directly with and through local people, gaining unparalleled insight into what works.

How we use the money you give us

For every £1 we spend:

69p is spent on programme activity, including humanitarian and development work

17p is spent on fundraising

11p is spent on support costs (running the organisation)

3p is spent on campaigning for change

These figures are taken from our expenditure in 2018.

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.
