Charity experiences
Our donors are at the heart of what we do
Why support us?
We rely upon generous donations from Trusts and Foundations to be a lifeline for anyone experiencing a crisis. This includes vulnerable people who have left home, children thinking of running away, and families left behind.
Our Trusts and Foundations team will be with you from day one: to support you, and answer your questions. We’ll also update you on the difference your gift makes to people affected by disappearance every year.
Help us continue be a lifeline – get in touch now.
You can contact our Grants Manager, Joss Mooney on joss.mooney@missingpeople.org.uk or call her on 020 8392 4597.
Our donors are at the heart of what we do
“My visit to Missing People’s offices last year was one of the most inspiring charity visits I made. The dedication, enthusiasm and passion from every person I met to go that extra mile was incredibly impressive. I hope with all my heart never to be in the position to have someone close to me go missing but if they did knowing an organisation like Missing People would be there to support and guide me is reassuring.”
Della Skeates, Charles Lewis Foundation
“We have been supporting Missing People for many years – most recently contributing to their 121 Chat service for young people – enabling them to make safer decisions when they are thinking about running away. Missing People has demonstrated that their work is meaningful and fits with our commitment to making a positive and significant difference to the lives of people.”
St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation
“WCIT Charity has invested into Missing People’s digital future. We’re delighted that our unique combination of funding and member expertise is an effective catalyst for this vital work. This will ensure that, through technology, Missing People can reach and help more people and their families affected by the devastating impact of going missing.”
