When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, everything changes.
At Team Jak, we’re here to support families and friends as they embark on a daunting journey into the unknown.
Can you help us create smiles for our young people with cancer?
Every penny you donate will be helping families across Scotland feel seen, supported, and never alone.
There are lots of ways you can donate to Team Jak — just choose the one that works best for you, and if you pay tax we can — with your permission — claim Gift Aid which adds another 25% to your donation.
Your monthly gift helps us plan ahead and provide consistent support to families facing childhood cancer. It’s a powerful way to stand alongside them every step of the way.
A single gift can make a big difference. It can fund a music therapy session, a sibling activity, or even a pamper treat that brings a smile on a hard day. Every donation plays a part.
Quick and simple! Just send a text message with the code below to donate:
Text will cost your donation amount + standard network message charge.
Fancy having a little fun while you support us? Set up a regular monthly £10 donation, choose your magic number, and we’ll enter you into our weekly draw. All money raised going directly to Team Jak’s work. Contact us to join!
If your employer offers payroll giving, you can support Team Jak through monthly pre-tax deductions from your salary. Ask your HR team if they’re part of the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF), Benevity, or a similar scheme. Please get in touch to find out more.
We often share a wishlist of resources, play equipment and other supplies that help us run our day-to-day services. You can support us by donating these items directly or by ordering from our Amazon Wishlist. Just contact us for more information.
