My story

Christian Aid is a trusted charity I've supported all of my adult life. It works with community organisations on the ground with the poorest people in the world. I like this because I know the funds are going right where they are needed.

Also I like Christian Aid because it consistently campaigns to raise awareness of the impact of climate change on communities who have done the least to cause it. And it empowers those communities to adapt and develop.

Christian Aid is supported by churches as well as other groups in the UK; it gives aid to people in poverty or emergency need  across the world,  of all faiths or none.

For my birthday this year I invite you to help me raise funds for Christian Aid .

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.
