My story

I’m taking on the challenge of 70K in May. Why?

Partly it’s to prove I can still do it!  

More importantly any money raised can help ensure 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.

I’m not anticipating or asking for any third party support but if you stumble across this page by accident and feel generous then feel free to contribute as little as 10p…

How your money helps

Poverty pushed Aline to the brink. She was abused, homeless and hungry. But Aline pushed back harder. With Christian Aid funded small business training, she achieved what had seemed impossible, a vital income for her and her children.

Fundraising this Christian Aid Week will ensure more people in Burundi get the skills and knowledge they need to push back against the inhumanity of poverty.
