Give A Brick started life as a simple fund-raising idea. We needed £100,000 to build a community centre. Instead of writing to a handful of rich people, what would happen if we asked everyone to give just £1 and ask them to ask their friends to do the same? Give A Brick was born!Your £1 will buy actual bricks for community projects that make life better for children, young people, the elderly and those experiencing financial hardship. We will also use your £1 to buy virtual bricks: bricks that build opportunities, bricks that rebuild lives, bricks that make people smile.Give A Brick (i.e. just £1) then ask your friends to do the same!
