In 2024, our Be Rich campaign raised over £9,000 for our ForMK Crisis Fund—an incredible achievement! But it’s about more than just the money. This fund serves as a lifeline for those in our community facing difficult times. Here’s just one example of how your generosity is making a real difference.

The Challenge: A Financial Struggle
Life can feel overwhelming when financial difficulties take hold. For many, unexpected hardships, health challenges, or personal struggles can lead to mounting bills and impossible choices. At Venture Church we believe no one should have to face these challenges alone. That’s why we step in to provide support through local partnerships, to provide help where it's needed most, just like we did for one woman navigating a difficult financial situation.
This woman was struggling to pay her creditors and essential bills. With limited income from her Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Universal Credit (UC), she found herself stretched thin, unable to make ends meet while waiting for a local organisation to arrange manageable payment plans. The process of sorting out debts takes time, but the need for basic necessities—food, utilities, and daily essentials—doesn’t wait. She needed immediate support to bridge the gap until her finances were stabilised.
Bridging the Gap
Thanks to the generosity of those who Love, Serve, and Give through Be Rich, she received essential financial assistance through a local partnership from the forMK Crisis fund to help her manage daily expenses during this critical period. This support provided not only practical relief but also peace of mind, allowing her to focus on regaining control of her finances without the added stress of wondering how she would afford the basics. A little help made a big difference in restoring hope and dignity to her situation.
This is why Be Rich exists—to bring real change through generosity. When we give, we don’t just provide temporary relief; we empower people to rebuild their lives. You can be part of this impact. Whether through a donation, volunteering, or a simple act of kindness, every effort contributes to lifting someone up in their time of need.
