My story


This week we celebrate the fantastic work of Christian Aid throughout the world. Although we focus on the work Christian Aid partners are doing in Malawi they also work in 28 other countries in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and the Caribbean.

Any support you can give is valuable and will help some of the most vulnerable communities in the world. If you are a UK taxpayer please fill in the required details so that your donation goes even further.

People at St Johns have always been generous supporters of Christian Aid so thank you in anticipation.

 

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.
