Empowering Hope and Change
Whilst fundraising as a child, Our Chairperson- Fraya, said that "EVERYONE in life has a CHANCE, and this is MY CHANCE. My chance to make a DIFFERENCE".
From this My Chance and its ethos was born. No matter who you are, or where you come from, we can all use our chance to make a difference to those that need our help.
From all of us at My Chance, we would like to thank you for joining us and starting, or perhaps continuing, your journey to make a difference!

Million possibilities to make a difference
Hello!
Hello, and welcome to the home of My Chance! We are a complete non-profit organisation created and ran by family and friends who volunteer their time, experience and passion to help others.
My Chance aims to provide aid to everyone and anyone who is in need of help. We strive to support those, from newborn babies to the elderly, with poor physical and/or mental health, focusing on those rarer illnesses that are currently deemed ‘incurable’. But no matter the ailment, we care!
This is why My Chance have adopted the phrase, Dum Spiro Spero - While we breath, we hope. While we are here, we will fight for you and medical progress to give hope to those in our community. Supporting those smaller voices in an ocean of big ones.
Here at My Chance we perform acts of kindness and daring missions to raise money to give to well deserving causes, be a specific person or equipment needed, to a small charity just starting out.
At My Chance, we believe that together, we can create a ripple effect of support in our community, each using our own chance to make a difference. So please join us in our mission to raise awareness and inspire new fundraisers and provide essential resources for those in need.

Do you know someone who is a champion fundraiser in our community?
The Long Legacy Award
Named after Brian Long, a pillar in our community, The Long Legacy Award was created to continue his impact and dedication to the people of Yorkshire.
Throughout the many years of volunteering, Brian speared campaigns and charitable acts to raise vital funds for children suffering with kidney disease in and around the Leeds area, under ‘Jimmy’s Association For Kidney Children’. Brian brought families together, and was never paid, or rewarded for his efforts, but just wanted to make a difference. It is with this in mind we have set up the Long Legacy Award.
So please get in contact and nominate that special person you know who deserves a big thank you, who goes above and beyond to make a difference. In addition to being awarded, the winner will receive £1000 to go to their chosen cause to support all their fundraising efforts! The winner will also be given tickets to our Annual Ball, to receive this award and donation!
