Here in Teesdale we are raising money to support the work of Christian Aid.
The money raised goes towards Christian Aid’s work in some of the world’s poorest communities, acting where the need is greatest, without regard to the faith or religion of those requiring help.
Such support is especially valued at a time when so many communities across the world are suffering because of the Climate Crisis impacting on temperatures, rainfall and sea-level which have destroyed the ability to grow food in many places that used to be productive. These problems have been made worse by the global increases in the price of fuel and of basic food commodities.
Christian Aid also responds to emergencies, providing relief in places such as north-west Syria and southern Turkey in the aftermath of the earthquake that hit on 6th February this year.
Thank you for supporting those in need.
Your gifts this Christian Aid Week could help people around the world secure a safer, happier future for their children and grandchildren.
We are united by hope. And together, we hope every family will have the joy of living a dignified life, free from poverty.
Every gift. Every action. Every prayer. Every one of us can make dreams come true.
