THE WHO: WHICH CHARITY WILL BE BENEFITING?
A CATALYST FOR CHANGE
Big Change is a registered UK charity that is rethinking charity to see a society where every young person is set up to thrive in life, not just in exams.
The great thing about Big Change is that the costs to run the charity are funded by a group of incredible core donors which allows every penny we donate to go directly to the Big Change projects that are making a massive impact on our youth.
The youth of today will be our leaders of tomorrow and as Mandela once said "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
