I am pledging to walk/swim/cycle 70k in May and I am looking for sponsors!

This Christian Aid Week (12–18 May), we're highlighting our work in Burundi, one of the poorest countries in the world finanically, and one of the least prepared to combat the effects of climate crisis. With a fragile economy built on agriculture, people in Burundi find themselves in a precarious position in the face of droughts, floods and landslides. The global cost of living crisis has intensified the challenges families face. More than 70% of the population live in poverty, and 52% of children are chronically malnourished. We know we can’t solve every problem that our neighbours in Burundi will face, but with our support, more families are building reliable and diverse incomes that are bringing them food security, better health, safer homes, increased resilience and hope. ‘When we see Christian Aid, we feel comforted, we feel we are not alone. We see that we have people to back us up.’ Aline Nibogora.
