Christian Aid Week is our shared moment to come together – across churches, communities and households – to stand alongside people living in poverty.

For one focused week, thousands of people across Britain and Ireland give, fundraise, pray and act together. This year, what will you do?

Why take part in Christian Aid Week?

This Christian Aid Week, your support could help mothers in Nairobi, Kenya, facing the devastating reality of urban poverty and the daily struggle to feed their children.

Most most parents wake every single day knowing that they must go and earn money, otherwise their children won’t eat that evening. Fridah knows this reality well. But she's determined to protect her grandchildren from hunger. 

Through our partner, Beacon of Hope, she’s received tools, seeds and training to grow fresh vegetables in a small city space – food she can cook for her family or sell to earn income.

‘Now I can plan. I can buy this; I can buy that. I can help my family.’
