Father's Day charity gift ideas 2024: our top picks
Looking for a meaningful Father’s Day gift? Choose a charity gift that gives back, and support vulnerable children.
Father's Day is just around the corner on Sunday 16 June. It’s a great chance to celebrate what your dad means to you and thank them with a meaningful Father's Day gift. This year, why not give a charity gift that gives back, and help vulnerable children across the UK?
What your gift could mean for families across the UK
With soaring energy bills and rising prices, parents are being pushed to their limits. Luckily, our frontline workers are on hand everyday to offer much needed support. And with a charity Father's Day gift, your donation could help make sure children and families are supported and have the basics. Supporting them is more important than ever.
Choose a virtual charity gift and you could help change a child's life, like Rachel, who has spent most of her life in care and has struggled with her mental health.
Gift 1: A football for a child in need
No child should have to miss out on activities and play. This gift could make a huge different to a child's physical and emotional wellbeing.
Gift 2: Bedding and soft furnishing
For a young person moving into care, allowing them to have their own bedding and other soft furnishings will help make their room feel like their own.
Gift 3: A support worker for a child in crisis
No child should have to struggle alone. With this gift, you could help a child in crisis get the help and mental health support they need.
Gift 4: A meal with friends
A monthly gift of £15 could pay for a child living in care to go for a meal with their friends. Being able to join in experiences like this ensures they have the same opportunities as other children.
We understand that Father's Day can be a sensitive and difficult time for many. It can be painful for those grieving the death or absence of their dad or father figure. Children can have their own way of expressing grief and sometimes they don’t express it at all.
Our support workers and foster families offer empathy, understanding, and support all year round - especially at this time.
