Giving back through the STV Children’s Appeal
STV Children’s Appeal raises funds and makes a difference for children in Scotland who need it most.
1 in 4 children in Scotland are living in poverty, and with the cost of living rising, families are now having to decide whether it is more important to heat their homes or eat.
So far over £29 million has been raised through the Appeal, with funds distributed to provide practical help such as food and warm clothes; creating opportunities for training and employability; and enabling social and emotional support.
In 2021 STV Children’s Appeal invested £3,500,000 into a number of projects reaching every local authority in Scotland. Through this investment over 600 small projects were assisted by funds raised through the appeal, leading to support being provided to over 20,000 people.
