Our Christmas Appeal – Sharing Hope This Season

This Christmas, we’re joining together to bring hope to families who’ve fled violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Mothers like Chance are doing all they can to keep their children safe, but life in temporary shelters brings daily struggles with hunger and illness.

Through Christian Aid and their trusted partner ECC - MERU, emergency cash grants are reaching families most in need - giving parents the dignity to choose what their children need most: food, medicine, bedding, or shelter.

As we celebrate the birth of Christ, we share His love by standing with those who face hardship and fear.

Together, our giving can bring comfort, nourishment, and hope to families like Chance’s this Christmas and beyond.

How your money helps

This Christmas, support families in the Democratic Republic of Congo who’ve fled violence.

For mothers like Chance, daily life in a displacement camp means finding enough food, medicine and shelter to keep her children alive. But your fundraising can make a life-saving difference. Every pound raised could provide cash grants that: 

  • Give families the dignity to buy food, medicine and essentials.
  • Bedding, blankets and shelter to protect children traumatised by conflict.
  • Vital supplies that bring comfort and hope in the darkest of times

Your donations, this Christmas, will bring hope to those who need it most.
