Thank you for your Christmas Appeal support

Thank you for all your generous donations to our 2024 Christmas Appeal

Thank you so much to all of our incredible supporters who donated to our first ever Christmas Appeal, which has raised over £1,700.

Your support will go a long way in helping survivors of sexual harm across Surrey that need our help.

RASASC CEO Daisy Anderson said: “I’m so pleased to tell you that our first ever fundraising campaign has raised £1,724.17.

“We have learnt a lot about campaigns in the process - not least, that people’s generosity is astounding! Although we didn’t reach our target, it’s clear there is an appetite for campaigns from RASASC, as an easy and straightforward way for people to show their support.

“Often words can feel inadequate, but I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all of you who donated to our Christmas Appeal. In doing so you have made a difference to the lives of many. We’ll certainly be back with more campaigns, so watch this space!”

We will continue to use the GiveMatch platform to support our team in the London Landmarks Half Marathon in April, meaning that donations made to our runners can be doubled if two of their friends and family donate too.

We will be posting more about our amazing team soon, but if you would like to donate to any of our incredible runners, you can do so here:

Hamish, Nathalie and Zach, Maddy, Georgia, Chantelle, Maddie, Jess and Maggie.
