My story

This year at St Leonard's Church our fundraising for Christian Aid includes, a special concert by the Queen Anne Singers on Monday 15th May, a sponsored walk in Pittencrieff park on Saturday 20th May and envelope collections, like this one.

Help us to raise money to help Christian Aid, turn hunger into hope, secure a better future for families in need, and help bring climate justice to affected communities. 

With your help, we can make dreams come true around the world.

Please, please, give what you can.

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.
