My story

Christian Aid works on so many fronts to support overseas causes. For instance, in Guatemala, the climate crisis is destroying crops and causing hunger for Indigenous communities. However, with education and training provided by Christian Aid funding, farmers are given a hand up rather than a hand out and are able to improve their situation dramatically. 

Individuals have faced extreme heatwaves that have killed their crops, but through Christian Aid’s partner, Congcoop, they are learning to grow resilient crops, make fertiliser and conserve water. This knowledge is helping communities build a sustainable future. 

This Christian Aid Week, please give to support farmers in the fight against hunger and the climate crisis.

How your money helps

This Christian Aid Week, you can support communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

In places like Guatemala, extreme weather is destroying crops, deepening hunger and threatening livelihoods. But with the right tools and training, farmers can build sustainable futures.  

Every pound you raise could help:

  • Provide climate-resilient seeds to help families grow food.
  • Fund water conservation techniques to protect crops.
  • Support vital training so farmers can build a sustainable future.
