The money I raise for Tearfund's Matched Giving Appeal, before 17 May, will be doubled by the UK government, up to £3 million.
Donations to this appeal will help Tearfund transform lives in countries where the need is greatest.
Match funding from the UK government will be used to tackle waste around the world. In Pakistan, for example, this funding will support our partners to set up innovative recycling hubs in some of the poorest slum communities. These hubs will help tackle plastic pollution, provide sustainable livelihoods and improve peoples health and living conditions.
Every £42 doubled could provide waste collection for two families like Rubinas, making their local environment cleaner and safer.
