My story
Christian Aid is involved in many projects across the developing world, and is also part of the Disasters Emergency Committee.
This year's focus project is about alleviating poverty in Burundi, where malnourishment and poverty affect more than 70% of the population, putting them at the edge of survival.
"Aline, pushed to the brink, was abused, homeless and hungry. But Aline pushed back. She found a lifeline through Christian Aid funded small business training and she set up as a grocery wholesaler. This meant Aline achieved what had seemed impossible, a vital income for her and her children.
You can help ensure more people in Burundi get the skills and knowledge they need to fulfil their hopes and ambitions."
