How to send a charity Christmas eCard

What are the benefits of a charity Christmas eCard?

No stamps or running to the post office is required. eCards take just a few clicks to share your festive wishes.

eCards are a thoughtful alternative to traditional cards. They eliminate the need for paper, meaning that they are better for the planet.

Every virtual Christmas card you send helps Action for Children provide vital support for vulnerable families across the UK.

Our unique designs stand out from the rest. Some designs have even been created by the children we support.

Why send a virtual Christmas card this year?

The magic of Christmas begins in childhood. Carefully hanging stockings. The smell of Christmas food. Peeking at presents under the tree.

But for too many children across the UK, Christmas is anything but magical. No stockings. No presents. No festive food - often no food at all. 

But by sending a personalised charity Christmas eCard you could help change that.

Your donation could help a vulnerable child feel the magic of Christmas.

How we help

At Action for Children, we have over 2,500 frontline workers supporting children every day.

We top up the gas meter when children are shivering in a freezing house. Put food on the table when children’s tummies are rumbling. Buy a Christmas present when a parent can’t.

Because poverty touches every part of a child’s life. It’s relentless. And it doesn’t stop because it’s Christmas.

Last year, incredible people like you helped us support 551,400 UK children, young people and families, through 342 services.

Because of your amazing generosity, families are given hope and support so children don’t miss out on a safe and happy childhood.
