Christian Aid
Everyone is equal in the sight of God
For over 75 years, this truth has inspired us to stand together in solidarity with our most marginalised global neighbours, of all faiths and none.
Poverty is an outrage against humanity. It robs people of their dignity and lets injustice thrive.
Christian Aid seeks to eradicate extreme poverty by tackling its root causes. Together with people living in poverty, they amplify our voices to speak truth to power and create lasting change.
Christian Aid supports projects which help the poor of developing countries, of any or no faith, to better their living and working conditions and improve their health. When disaster strikes, Christian Aid sends money to provide food, medicine, shelter and transport. Campaigning is an important aspect of Christian Aid and we are concerned with poverty issues such as
- to expose poverty throughout the world
- to help in practical ways to end it
- to highlight, challenge and change the structures and systems that favour the rich and powerful over the poor and marginalised.
