Join others from Ashbourne as we support the work of Christian Aid this May.
In Burundi, malnourishment and poverty affect more than 70% of the population, putting them at the edge of survival.
Coming back from the edge isn't easy when food can be scarce, disease prevalent, and jobs hard to come by. If you have a home, chances are there's no electricity or running water, and it may not even survive the next storm.
Aline, pushed to the brink, was abused, homeless and hungry. But Aline pushed back. She found a lifeline through Christian Aid funded small business training and she set up as a grocery wholesaler. This meant Aline achieved what had seemed impossible, a vital income for her and her children.
You can help ensure more people in Burundi get the skills and knowledge they need to fulfil their hopes and ambitions.
Join others from Ashbourne and stand with people like Aline by making a donation to Christian Aid this May.
As well as online fundraising, we have been collecting donations offline. Lots of people have donated, and we have raised £1688.20 offline (not including Gift Aid). Amazing! Thank you!
