For 80 years, Christian Aid has been fighting poverty and injustice. With your support, we've been able to offer hope to communities who need it most.

And over these 80 years, we’ve harnessed something formidable. Something that can’t be silenced by injustice. Something that refuses to sit back and watch poverty ravage communities.

We call it the unstoppable power of hope.

Together we can make hope unstoppable

Right now, we need the power of hope more than ever. As tragic events continue to unfold across the world, we can’t stop here. Donate and help us in making lasting change possible.

Faith in action: One family's journey with Christian Aid

The Mead family has been at the heart of Christian Aid’s mission for four generations.

From door-to-door collections to church events, they've tirelessly fundraised to help create lasting change. Their story is one of faith, resilience and hope passed down through the years.

The Meads reflect on how their faith has inspired them to give, act, and pray, bringing hope to others.
