My story

Jen, a loving mum in Malawi, dreams of her children being able to have the education they deserve. Her hard-working boys have earned places at top colleges – but Jen cannot afford to send them both.
This Christian Aid Week, you can help dreams come true. Your envelope could help famers like Jen plant better seeds, secure a fairer price for their crops, and build happier futures for their children.

Support your team from All Saints with St Frideswyde who are stepping out in support of Jen and others like her in Malawi who rely on the seeds they grow and sell to educate their families.

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.
