My story

Malnourishment and poverty affect almost 10% of the world's 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 or natural disaster.

Christian Aid helps fund people to help themselves. This means people can achieve what had seemed impossible; a sustainable income for themselves, their family and their children.

Your donation can help support more people to get the skills and knowledge they need to fulfil their hopes and ambitions.

Please donate what you can and help someone push back against poverty.

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.
