Amaze launches crowdfunder to support disabled young people
Amaze has today launched a crowdfunding campaign for their work supporting young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) across Sussex.
Local charity Amaze has launched a crowdfunder campaign for Amazing Futures. Amazing Futures is our youth work project supporting young people with SEND (14-25) in Brighton & Hove and East Sussex.
Amazing Futures helps young people with SEND tackle barriers they face in society. We support them to come together, make friends, have fun, try new activities, learn and be unapologetically themselves.
The crowdfunder includes a number of rewards. These have been donated by businesses and organisations across Brighton and Hove and East Sussex and includes:
- i360 Tickets,
- Amaze Merchandise,
- Family tickets to Drusillas Park
- Vouchers for Donatello and Alcampo Lounge
- Dual rider vouchers on Brighton Zip
- Tickets to Boulder Brighton
- and much more
CEO of Amaze Sally Polanski said:
“Young people tell us time and time again that having the opportunity to be with their peers in a fun, safe and inclusive space is life-changing, in helping them to develop skills and grow in confidence as they prepare for adulthood.
“We are so proud of our Amazing Futures project which has been created with young people and supported by our staff and volunteers with lived experience of SEND. We are grateful for all donations to this crowdfunder appeal, big or small, which will help to sustain this vital service, and hopefully grow it, so that we can support more young people with additional needs in Sussex for years to come.”
The crowdfunder opens Monday 22nd April, and a full list of prizes are available on the crowdfunder site.
