Story
We (Rachael and Johanna) are fundraising to help our global neighbours who are facing extreme poverty, and those who have been thrust into poverty due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic has changed our world and affected every one of us- but it’s people living in poverty who have been hit the hardest. Since the pandemic began, Tearfund and their local partners and churches have been responding to the needs of vulnerable communities all over the world. This has included providing emergency food packages during lockdowns, setting up hand-washing stations in communities, and distributing face masks and hygiene supplies.
We're going to be swimming in the (very cold!) North Sea every day for 10 days for you to sponsor us and help us reach the target of £1,000, which will go towards Tearfund's response to the needs of these communities. Every donation is much appreciated!
