Story

Take to the stairs, get sponsored, and help end poverty. The money you make will help us to reach those most in need with the tools and training they need to lift themselves out of poverty and stay there.

People like Tamam from Syria. Armed groups entered her village and cut off the electricity and running water. She took her children and they ran for their lives.

Tamams home is now two rooms in a slum in Lebanon. It is cramped and dangerous. Life is hard, but there are fragments of hope. Tearfunds local partner, Tahaddi Education Center, is in the heart of the settlement. They provide schooling, trauma counselling and healthcare, as well as business training. Tamam was invited to join their sewing programme, and now has a way to earn an income and feed her family.

There are millions of people like Tamam from Syria whose lives have been shattered by conflict. But through the fundraising efforts of people like you, they can flourish again. Your footsteps can fund vital work like this around the world, saving lives and bringing hope.

Make a difference today. Take on The Climb.
