Working with Families

The Giving Tree

The Giving Tree Project runs each year to provide Christmas presents to those children in Coventry who otherwise wouldn’t receive them.  Last year (2024) we were, yet again, able to help a record number of children and families, providing gifts for 1589 children from 633 families. This was a particularly high number of families and it highlighted to us the particular problems that ongoing high cost of living is causing for many families in Coventry.  This is an amazing opportunity for us to share God’s love with the people of Coventry.

How you can help us

We rely entirely on donations and grants to fund the project each year, and last year we gave out over £25,000 worth of gifts.  If you can help us with this for 2025 then please get in touch anytime throughout the year.  

Alternatively please see the Support Us page on this site for more details of how you can support us as a charity.  Thank you. 

For more information please contact:  Sarah White on givingtree@covcitymission.org.uk. 

How we can help you

If you live in Coventry and are struggling financially to provide gifts for your children we may be able to help you.  From 1st November you will be able to apply via this website for support – see home page for details.  We look at the benefits you are receiving to decide if you are eligible.  If you aren’t receiving benefits and still feel you need help then you will need to contact your child’s school or an agency worker to refer you during November.
