Generation Rent Lives To Fight Another Day

Generation Rent has raised enough money to keep campaigning for private renters across the UK, amassing nearly £18,000 in donations. A month ago our future looked very bleak, with no guarantee that we would be able to survive past September. The team here has thrown everything we had at fundraising and we have been humbled by the response.  Since we launched our emergency crowdfunding campaign at the end of July, 371 people have donated a total of £17,982. With our grant from the Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust of £45,500, these funds allow us to continue our work in London and nationally with a team of two: director Betsy Dillner and communications manager Dan Wilson Craw.  Read more on the Generation Rent website.
