My story

We're taking on 70K in May to help communities fight the climate crisis. This means We'll be walking 70 kilometres in solidarity with millions of people who have to walk long distances for clean water or to sell their produce, and with those for whom walking is difficult and who don't have access to the sort of resources that we do in this country

In Guatemala, farmers like Aurelia are battling extreme weather, but with Christian Aid’s support, they’re learning skills to protect their farms and provide for their families. 

Your support can help fund this vital training. Even if you only give the price of a cup of coffee, it will make a difference.

How your money helps

This Christian Aid Week, you can support communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

In places like Guatemala, extreme weather is destroying crops, deepening hunger and threatening livelihoods. But with the right tools and training, farmers can build sustainable futures.  

Every pound you raise could help:

  • Provide climate-resilient seeds to help families grow food.
  • Fund water conservation techniques to protect crops.
  • Support vital training so farmers can build a sustainable future.
