I’m fundraising this Christian Aid Week! Why? To help people push back against poverty. Did you know, malnourishment and poverty affect many people in a greater part of the Southern hemisphere.
Christian Aid are working to empower families in Burundi, for example, build reliable and diverse incomes. Take Aline, for example. She found a lifeline in Christian Aid after she felt the full force of extreme poverty, when an early marriage ended in abuse and violence. Christian Aid helped her with small business training and she set up as a grocery wholesaler. Today, Aline can afford food, clothes, and essential healthcare for her family.
There’s more people Christian Aid could reach – and that’s why I’m fundraising.
The money raised can help ensure more people get the skills and knowledge they need to fulfil their hopes and ambitions. £10 could provide one person with the training that supports their family to set up a small business, such as selling home-grown vegetables.
We can't be everywhere but Christian Aid can work with other agencies to help people towards living better, independent lives.
Together we can make a lasting difference. Thank you for your support!
