**The Big Give and The Childhood Trust have signed a three-year campaign partnership
agreement.**

[The Big Give](https://www.thebiggive.org.uk/) and [The Childhood Trust](http://www.childhoodtrust.org.uk/)
already have a successful fundraising relationship, which has helped the charity
raise £6.8m since 2013 via The Big Give’s online match fundraising platform, funding
more than 150 projects supporting vulnerable and disadvantaged children in London.

The Childhood Trust is one of The Big Give’s biggest champion funders, providing
funds in The Big Give’s [Christmas Challenge](https://www.thebiggive.org.uk/christmas-challenge/)
for projects working to support disadvantaged children in London, and also running
the Summer Give match funding campaign in partnership with it. [This year’s Summer Give](https://fundraising.co.uk/2017/05/24/childhood-trusts-summer-give-raises-778000-london-children/)
campaign saw The Childhood Trust raise more than £778,000: its biggest total to 
date.

CBE, and founder and Chair of The Childhood Trust Grant Gordon.

> have embraced the Big Give platform and demonstrated the power of match funding
> to incentivise donors and empower small charities to transform the lives of the
> most vulnerable in society. We hope this agreement will encourage more funders
