Charity & Community Action

Each year, at our January AGM, committee members vote on the charity that will be supported by CYPG for the coming year. This year, our chosen charity is It Takes A City in Cambridge.

Who are It Takes A City?

It Takes a City (ITAC) is a small local charity working to put a stop to the cycle of poverty and homelessness in Cambridge, for good. Their projects provide safe spaces, support and opportunities – and by working together with charities, community groups, local authorities and businesses – they create lasting solutions. 

ITAC directly deliver key services in the city:

  • Survive and Thrive transitional support for both rough sleepers and those on a journey away from the street
  • Crossways emergency winter accommodation project
  • The Haven, a women-only overnight safe space.

Over the course of the year, money raised from CYPG events and the Autumn Ball will be donated to ITAC.
