Churches, partner with us

We only exist through the generosity of donors and grant makers.

Your support helps us be there for young people when they need someone to listen, encourage and walk alongside them.

Join our Circle of Hope and become a regular giver, helping provide the consistent funding we need to support young people through our projects and continue growing the reach of Emerge.

You can also make a one-off donation or fundraise for Emerge — every contribution helps us bring hope to young people experiencing crisis.

Our motivation for everything we do in Emerge is our Christian faith.

The best way to partner with us in supporting young people is to pray – for our young people, and for our team of staff and volunteers.

We regularly share updates about what’s going on in Emerge and our impact with our Church partners. These also include prayer points to help you know how to pray for us and our work.

We love connecting with churches to share what we do. We can send someone to speak at your church service or event. This is a key way we raise awareness about Emerge and grow our teams of volunteers.

We also offer bespoke training to churches and church-related groups to help those looking to support young people with their mental health. These sessions can be catered to your focus and audience. We have provided training at church and charity youth worker training days.

If this is something you are interested in, please email info@emergeadvocacy.com or contact your local Emerge project to arrange a speaking engagement.

Predominantly, we form teams to support young people in our communities through our links with local church networks. Here we find people with pastoral experience and caring attitudes, who make great volunteers by supporting young people, baking cakes for hospital staff, or joining our Backstop team.

If you have any willing members in your church, check our contact list for a project near you and get in touch, or browse our current opportunities.
