Thank you for all of your support and generous donations!

This Christmas, you truly helped young women shine.

All of your donations will be used to support people around the world. People like the young women in Bangladesh, who have become a guiding light in their community - leading the way out of poverty. 

Thank you for helping young women to define their own futures. You've also helped spread the love even further. Each woman who receives support or upskilling through our partners can teach other women in their community to achieve their ambitions and goals too.

It’s never too late to make a difference.

Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. Though the Christmas season may be drawing to a close, our support certainly isn’t.

Kakoli's story

‘I didn’t have any dreams a few years ago. I didn’t have any money to do anything. To do something, I had to ask for money from my brothers and father… I explained to my parents that I don’t want to marry, let me grow up. I want to study now. I am in the first year of my degree course'
Kakoli Khatun

Kakoli is studying for a degree at college. At the same time, she’s running a successful business after receiving training, start-up funding support from Christina Aid and our partners, Aid Comilla. 

This Christmas, you could help young women, like Kakoli, launch a business online and earn her own independent living.
