The Christmas Challenge 2019 – One donation, twice the impact

The Christmas Challenge will take place from 12pm (midday) Tues 3rd December – 12pm Tues 10th December when your donations to participating charities will be doubled.

What is the Christmas Challenge?

The Christmas Challenge, founded by entrepreneur and philanthropist Sir Alec Reed CBE, is the UK’s biggest online match funding campaign. For seven days, it offers supporters of participating charities the opportunity to have their donation doubled on theBigGive.org.uk. Since the Big Give launched the campaign in 2008, the Christmas Challenge has raised over £103 million for thousands of charity projects. 

“Match funding campaigns really appeal to people and are a fantastic way to raise money.”
– Mustard Seed Project, Kenya
