This year we celebrate 75 years of Christian Aid raising essential funds for those in need and taking a stand against oppressive regimes across the world. Formed after world war 2, Christian Aid raised urgent money to support the refugees across Europe. That was the humble beginning of a movement that would bring about real change across the world, enabling communities to break the cycle of poverty and build a hopeful future together.
Now, regrettably three quarters of century later the need for your support is needed more than ever. The climate crisis is leaving people hungry, homeless and heartbroken. People like Rose are struggling to survive without a reliable source of water. From drought to flooding, climate chaos robs people of control over their lives. I often feel hungry, Rose says. Because of climate change, I worry a lot about food. I pray to God that the rainfall will become normal like it used to be. In recent years, the drought has been so bad that its caused a hunger crisis. Crops wither and die. Rivers run dry. People struggle to survive. The coronavirus pandemic has only made this lack of water more critical for Rose. Without water for hand-washing, it is a struggle to stay safe from the virus. Please support my fundraising and help to provide reliable water source, for people like Rose.Your gift will help support Christian Aid's vital work with some of the poorest communities in the world.Thank you!
