My story

In Guatemala, the climate crisis is destroying crops and causing hunger for Indigenous communities. But with training, farmers are able to find ways of overcoming adversity. 

Local farmers have faced extreme heatwaves that have killed crops, but through Christian Aid’s partner, Congcoop, they are learning to grow resilient crops, make fertiliser and conserve water. This knowledge is being shared with others, helping the communities build sustainable futures. 

This Christian Aid Week, please give to support farmers in the fight against hunger and the climate crisis.

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.
