We are excited about our recent Cash First pilot partnership with Perth Citizens Advice Bureau, one of our charity members, which has enabled us to extend our reach across Perth and Kinross.
It’s clear from this pilot partnership that, when things can’t wait any longer, when other avenues have been exhausted, or when there’s nowhere else to turn, The Squeeze plays a vital role in providing donations to beneficiaries who are in real need as identified by Perth CAB. The “Cash First” approach ensures that individuals and families facing financial hardships receive the help they need quickly and efficiently, helping to restore their dignity and hope.
We believe in empowering our community by providing immediate short-term financial support when wait times are too long for other avenues, other avenues have been exhausted, or simply when there’s nowhere else to turn
🤝 Together with Perth Citizens Advice Bureau, we:
🔹 Provided direct and tangible financial assistance to those in need
🔹Offered guidance and support and worked together to identify those needing support
🔹 Monitor the impact made within Perth and Kinross communities
Below are just two examples of what we’ve supported, from one of the beneficiaries of our microgrants and from one of the Perth Citizens Advice Bureau advisors we worked closely with:
