Stop.Breathe.Think are celebrating this week after Treehouse Life International launched ‘The Wider Circle,’ a new giving programme to raise funds for the charity, with the company matching donations added to every new commission pound for pound.
Treehouse Life is marking 25 years of creating spectacular treehouses, rope bridges, and adventure spaces by choosing to give back. Alongside their new matching programme, they are also inviting the hundreds of families they have worked with over the years to support the initiative and help young people to receive support through Stop.Breathe.Think. Fellow youth charity, Snow Camp, will also be benefitting from this new project.
Past Treehouse Life clients can donate through a dedicated ‘Wider Circle’ giving page, while future clients can choose to add a donation of between 1% and 5% of their project price. The Treehouse Life team will match donations on new commissions pound for pound to support as many young people as possible.
This programme will help Stop.Breathe.Think expand its work providing online counselling support for young people aged 8 to 24 across the UK. Since launching in 2020, the charity has supported more than 4,000 young people and delivered over 25,000 counselling sessions.
The Wider Circle initiative grew out of a friendship between Treehouse Life founder Paul Cameron and Dan Charlish, and their shared belief that the right support can have a transformative impact on a young person’s life.
Dan Charlish, founder of Stop.Breathe.Think and Snow Camp, said:
“When Paul and I first talked about this, what excited me most was the shared goal to create something that could change lives through a genuine partnership that aimed to link our organisations and grow something new.
It says so much about the Treehouse Life team that, as they approach 25 years of delivering wonderful projects, they want to mark this milestone by doing something for others. The Wider Circle initiative gives their past and future clients a simple way to pass some love on to young people who are facing real adversity, and yet still dreaming big.
Every gift that is matched and built on means more young people getting someone to talk to when they need it most at Stop.Breathe.Think. I couldn’t be more grateful to Paul and his team.”
Paul Cameron, founder of Treehouse Life International, said:
“Every treehouse we build begins with a child and someone who loves them, imagining something bigger than everyday life. Over 25 years, our wonderful clients have enjoyed amazing family and childhood experiences, and might, we hope, now wish to be part of The Wider Circle.
We’re lucky enough to build wonder for families who can commission it. This is simply a way to let a little of that wonder reach the children who can’t, and by matching every gift, we make sure a small choice goes twice as far.”
