Today and every day our service is available 24 hours. Your support given to The Samaritans helps add tomorrows every day.
The majority of our funding comes from caring individuals, who, like our unpaid volunteers operating our 24/7 hotline service, are willing to offer help and support to total strangers who are experiencing despair, distress or suicidal feelings.
A quick, secure and convenient way to give is donate online. If you’d like to help us continue this vital service, please choose from these two options:
When you choose monthly donation, you’ll support The Samaritans with a monthly gift of the amount you select. Your credit card will be billed each month until you choose to cancel.
Whatever way you choose to donate, your gifts can help in the following ways:
One-off donation
You may change the life of someone.
Monthly donation
Your monthly will ensure the Samaritans could support everyone in need.
Help our organization by donating today! All donations go directly to making a difference for our cause.
We would like to make it easy and convenient for your generosity and goodwill to channel into action. Each time you donate, you are supporting our 24/7 emotional support service to enable people feeling depressed or downcast, any time of the day or night, to be listened to and accepted without prejudice.
