“Volunteering with the corporate partnerships team has enabled me to help donors understand what homelessness really means, when they might not have fully understood it before. Many of the attendees at Welcome to Crisis mornings are surprised by the severity of the situation, but are hopefully also uplifted by hearing how Crisis got me back on my feet and supported me out of homelessness” – Matthew, Crisis member ambassador
Crisis and Zoopla entered into a strategic partnership in August 2022. We will involve staff in exciting and creative fundraising challenges across Great Britain, in addition to volunteering opportunities as part of our annual Christmas project, network of year-round Skylight centres and Shops From Crisis.
