One donation, twice the impact – The Big Give Kind2Mind Campaign 2023

We were delighted to have been chosen to take part in the Big Give’s Kind2Mind Campaign this May. During this fundraising campaign, the Big Give kindly matched all donations that were made to Artis between 15-21 May 2023, meaning that each donation had twice the impact as the amount was doubled.

Our target for the campaign was £10,000 – half from donors and sponsors, and the other half matched by the Big Give. Thanks to the kind donations of many Artis supporters, we reached our target with time to spare and raised enough to fund provision in two Artis partner schools for a whole academic year.

Director & Co-Founder, Nigel Mainard said: ‘It’s been a pleasure to be a part of the Big Give Kind2Mind campaign and we are so pleased to have been able to double the donations from our supporters to make a wider impact on the children in Artis partner schools. Because of this, Artis will be able to provide children with tools and skills for positive mental wellbeing which they will carry with them for years to come.’

Thank you to all who donated, shared our campaign page on social media and beyond, and supported our involvement in this campaign. Thanks to you, we can make twice the difference to children in deprived areas and help them access a creative education, regardless of their background.

It’s not too late to donate – if you would like to further support our work going forward, please visit our website to give a one-off donation or become a monthly direct debit donor.
