Give A Gift 2024 with Hendy

Give A Gift 2024 - Donations are now closed

After last year’s heartwarming response, we’re excited to announce that kmfm’s Give A Gift is back for 2024.

What’s Give A Gift All About?

Give A Gift is about bringing joy to young people across Kent who are facing challenging times in hospitals, care facilities, or living in difficult situations. 

Every child deserves to feel the magic of Christmas, but sadly, many won't have a gift waiting under the tree. With your help, we’re here to change that by delivering toys and gifts that brighten their festive season.

 

Thank You for Making Give A Gift 2024 a Huge Success!


This year’s Give A Gift campaign, proudly supported by Hendy Vauxhall and Peugeot Tonbridge, has been a heartwarming demonstration of Kent’s incredible generosity and community spirit.

Thanks to the unwavering support of kmfm listeners, local businesses and the wonderful people of Kent, we’ve once again collected thousands of gifts to bring joy to children and young people across the county who are facing challenging times this Christmas.

From the smallest donation to larger contributions, every single gift has helped us brighten the festive season for those in hospitals, care facilities, or difficult situations. We’re overwhelmed by your kindness and support.

 

A Special Thanks to Our Supporters


A massive thank you to all the local businesses and schools who rallied behind us, contributing toys, funds, and spreading the word about the campaign. Your support has been instrumental in helping us reach children in need. And to everyone who donated gifts or contributed through our JustGiving page—thank you for making a real difference this holiday season.

 

The Impact of Your Generosity


In 2023, we delivered over 14,000 gifts, and this year we’re thrilled to continue bringing smiles across Kent. From December 12th, keep an eye out for our Give A Gift vans as our team, presenters, and partners deliver your donations to children and young people across the county.

This campaign is only possible because of you, our incredible community. Thank you for helping us ensure every child feels the magic of Christmas.

Stay tuned to kmfm and follow our socials to see your generosity in action. Together, we’ve made Christmas brighter for so many.
