More than 7,000 readers have donated so far, with funds going to help disadvantaged communities
Less than three weeks after its launch, the Guardian and Observer 2020 charity appeal has raised more than £750,000 for charities that are helping to tackle the stark impact of the pandemic crisis on young people in disadvantaged communities.
More than 7,000 people have donated so far, with the weekend’s socially distanced telethon kickstarting a fresh surge of donations to the appeal and its three beneficiary charities: UK Youth, Young Minds and Child Poverty Action Group.
