100 Friends Christmas Appeal:

We invite you to join with Together4Bristol to help transform the Bristol region

Dear Friend

Happy Christmas, may you be blessed this joyful season and thank you all so much for supporting this website through your kind donations!

We are asking for your help.

Since March 2011, Together4Bristol's website and social media have been enabling the Christian community to work together, to help transform the Bristol region.

For example, the website has helped publicise: various city-wide gatherings, such as with over 5,000 people at Ashton Gate Stadium in 2012, the Churches City Fund which raised £130,000 to help feed Bristolians in 2020 during the pandemic, and the annual Churches Winter Night Shelter, with 150 volunteers from 34 churches in 2022.

The website has become the one-stop-shop to find out what is happening to help change the Bristol region for good: what the key issues are, what gatherings and projects are happening and to enable Christian candidates to be found for jobs and volunteering roles.

Much of what we have been able to achieve has happened because we have built a community using the website and Facebook group (with over 900 members), and through the mailing list (to over 1,700 subscribers), receiving the monthly e-newsletter.

We regularly receive feedback, for example, about how people feel encouraged to take action, through seeing what God and the Christian community are doing across the Bristol region, or are thankful for help to find a job, or to find volunteers.

£5,000 is needed each year to update the website and social media.

We now need your support because the funding which kept the website and social media updated, and which created the monthly e-newsletter is no longer available.

We invite individuals and organisations to make a small but regular donation to cover these costs.

If 100 Friends each gave £50 a year - just £1 per week, and were able to gift-aid their donation, we would be able to sustain this vital work.

Would you be willing to help us in this way and donate to the 100 Friends Appeal?

Please pray that the money is found and about whether this is something you could be a part of. Of course, if you are able to give more, that would be greatly appreciated, and any gift – especially a regular one – no matter how small, will help us reach this target and enable this important service to continue.

You can securely donate online using the form below, or on the Donate page or alternatively by downloading this manual form, printing it off, filling it in and then sending it to the address on the form.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for your prayers and kind consideration!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

God bless
