My story

Christian Aid has worked in Malawi for 20 years.  Together with its partners, it empowers vulnerable communities to find practical and sustainable ways out of poverty.  

This Christian Aid Week, you can help people like Jen and Esther in Malawi plant better seeds, secure a fairer price for their crops and afford an education for their children.

Thank you for donating and helping in this important way to make a difference to people's lives.

How your money helps

Poverty pushed Aline to the brink. She was abused, homeless and hungry. But Aline pushed back harder. With Christian Aid funded small business training, she achieved what had seemed impossible, a vital income for her and her children.

Fundraising this Christian Aid Week will ensure more people in Burundi get the skills and knowledge they need to push back against the inhumanity of poverty.
