In Burundi, malnourishment and poverty affect more than 70% of the population, putting them at the edge of survival.
Our neighbours in Nether Edge have always been generous in their support for Christian Aid Week, and we have set up this online donation to make it easier for those who prefer not to use cash.
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.
Donate and help someone push back against poverty this Christian Aid Week.
