My story

This is Christian Aid week.

Together, we can help people secure a better future.

The impact of the recent Cyclone Freddy in Malawi has been devastating. Floods have washed away crops, over 500,000 people have been displaced and hundreds have lost their lives. Hard-working farmers are seeing their harvests fail as the climate crisis brings increasingly erratic weather.

Christian Aid is supporting the pigeon pea project in Malawi providing a hardy drought resistant crop. Your gifts this May will support this.

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.
