Every time Impetus appears in the media, people contact us and offer to help. With nearly one in five people living in poverty now, we need more people getting involved, and you can help us by spreading the word about the impact Impetus is having. Read about recent media coverage.

new at Impetus now, and what's new at our charities. To

Please contact Elizabeth Buckle to arrange an interview with
one of our spokespeople. Impetus chief executive Daniela Barone Soares is an engaging and
thought provoking interviewee, who speaks regularly at conferences
and in the media about:
* the urgent need to break the cycle of poverty - and how it
affects us
* the huge impact venture philanthropy is
having
* what it's really like to volunteer your skills and experience
(and why it's important)
* the best type of help for the voluntary sector
* and much more.
