SUPPORTED CHARITY APPEAL
Dear friends,
Christian Aid Week 2024 is just a fortnight away and is this year focussing on Burundi, one of the world's poorest countries.
Aline felt the full force of extreme poverty when an early marriage ended in abuse and violence.
Separated from her six children, she was forced to sleep on the streets of Burundi. No home. No healthcare. No security.
But Aline was determined to push back against the inhumanity of poverty, driven by hope, faith and the love of her children. She transformed her life with a little help from Christian Aid. Read her inspiring story here: https://www.christianaid.org.uk/appeals/key-appeals/christian-aid-week/alines-story
