Charities can now apply to take part in the 2014 Big Give Christmas Challenge, the
annual matched giving campaign that helps charities double their donations in some
cases from both new and existing donors.

Last year’s Challenge raised **over £10.5 million for the 387 charities** that took
part.

The Big Give will be running regular, free, online seminars to guide charities through
the Christmas Challenge.
