Why donate to Aspire?

We break the complex cycles of homelessness, poverty, re-offending and disadvantage - for good.

Aspire is changing hundreds of lives across Oxfordshire and the wider Thames Valley, every day. Last year, we supported over 2,000 people facing multiple challenges, poverty and disadvantage to find employment and housing.

We don't offer short term fixes - we work with people facing marginalisation and obstacles to help them move into sustainable jobs and housing, so that they can turn their own lives around for a better future. This means that if you donate to Aspire, you'll be helping people to build their skills, training and confidence to create their own lasting change.

The difference your donation makes

£18 could provide an employment support session for a formerly homeless person

£50 could provide a home-starter kit for someone moving into new accommodation

You will change lives

Two years ago, Fran was homeless. We were able to support her to build up her confidence, skills and work experience and worked with partner organisations to find Fran independent housing. She is now part of Aspire's homelessness prevention team, protecting other vulnerable people from becoming homeless. This is working to change lives. Fran says:

“I know from being homeless that so many people can get trapped in the cycle and it's really hard to get out. I'm very privileged to be part of the Trailblazer team and working on homelessness prevention because I don't want anyone to go through what I went through. Aspire is like my family. They do such great work and I feel really privileged to wear the Aspire hat!”
