700 Club - Forever Home Winter Appeal
The following is from the 700 Club.
If you have already made a donation, please accept our heartfelt thanks. Your kindness truly makes a difference.
If you haven’t yet had the chance to support the appeal, I hope you won’t mind me reaching out today. The need in our community is growing, and your support could not be more important. Right now, families in Darlington are facing the coldest months of the year while living in temporary, unsuitable accommodation—places never meant to be called home.
For many parents, this Christmas will be a painful reminder of what they cannot provide. They are doing everything they can in an incredibly difficult economic climate, yet still struggling to offer their children the stability, comfort, and dignity every child deserves. Some families are sharing cramped single rooms; others are moving from place to place, unable to settle. The idea of Christmas presents, festive meals, or simple treats feels completely out of reach.
Your support can change that. A gift to the Forever Homes Winter Appeal helps us provide safe, secure, long‑term homes for families who urgently need them. It means warmth instead of worry. It means a child having their own bed, their own space, and the chance to grow up with stability. It means parents can finally breathe again, knowing their family is safe.
Every donation, whatever the size, brings us closer to giving another family a place they can proudly call home. And for families who have already endured so much, your gift will be life‑changing.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for caring about the families we serve. Your compassion means more than you know.
