When in Bethlehem last year I saw the work of a Christian Aid partner, the YMCA at grass roots level helping a couple of villages work out their priorities and develop resources to realise those. Leading to a Kindergarden and library in Kissan and local first aid training and mobile phone provision in AlRaihayida following the death of a toddler from a scorpion bite that the mothers saw as needing immediate action.
No mum should have the heart-breaking choice of which child to educate and which one will miss out on their dreams.
No hardworking young person should be forced to give up on education, locking them into poverty.
We dream of a better world. We want every child to be able to have the education they need to break free of poverty. We imagine a future where crops are not flattened by cyclones and washed away by floods.
Together, we can help people secure a better future for their families, giving them the chance to fulfill their potential.
With your help, we can make dreams come true around the world. We won’t stop until everyone can live a full life, free from poverty.
