Christian Aid is celebrating its 80th anniversary and we are raising money for it’s vital work.
To join in that celebration Loughborough Christian Aid local group is forming a team to walk a total of 80 laps of Charnwood Water on 27th September. Please sponsor us to help us reach our fundraising target.
Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. Their groundbreaking work began in 1945, when the charity was founded by British and Irish churches to help refugees following the Second World War.
For 80 years, Christian Aid has provided humanitarian relief and long-term development support for poor communities worldwide, while highlighting suffering, tackling injustice and championing people’s rights.
They work in 25 countries and fund 410 projects across Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean.
My story
How your money helps
This Harvest, you can stand with farming families facing the climate crisis.
Unpredictable weather is destroying crops, making it harder to grow the food communities depend on. But with the right support, farmers can adapt and rebuild their livelihoods.
Every pound you give could help:
- Provide training on climate-smart farming techniques.
- Supply seeds and tools to grow crops that withstand floods and drought.
- Support community savings groups so farmers can access small loans and plan for the future.
