My story

I’m fundraising this Harvest, to help farmers facing climate chaos build a brighter, more resilient future.

Around the world, traditional farming methods are failing against extreme weather and climate change. Even experienced farmers, like Nyarai in Zimbabwe, urgently need to learn new skills to prevent hunger and malnutrition.

Christian Aid is working to empower farmers to become more resilient. For example, they provide training in sustainable farming techniques that can withstand extreme weather. This helps farmers maintain their livelihoods and feed their families.

The money raised can help ensure more farmers get the skills and knowledge they need to secure their future.

How your money helps

The hope of farming families is being pushed to the limit. In Zimbabwe, Nyarai’s family have always made their living by farming and selling chickens, until the climate crisis began to threaten their harvests and their hope. Low rainfall often left her family without enough food.

With Christian Aid-funded training, Nyarai learned sustainable harvesting and climate-smart agriculture practices. This transformed their lives. Your church’s collection will help train more farmers and prevent hunger and malnutrition as extreme weather ravages their crops.
