My Story

In countries like South Sudan, families like Shede’s face a daily battle not just for safety, but to survive. After fleeing conflict and leaving everything behind, they arrive at refugee settlements with little more than the clothes on their backs.

For these resilient individuals, the future feels uncertain. But with your help, we can provide vital support—ensuring families like Shede’s have access to food, clean water, and essential supplies.

This Christian Aid Week, please give what you can to help those struggling in the midst of crisis. Your donation can make all the difference, bringing hope and relief to families like Shede’s.

How your money helps

This Christmas, you can support families in South Sudan; a country ravaged by conflict and the climate crisis.

Extreme poverty is deepening, as food shortages, high prices, lack of clean water, and poor sanitation make daily life an enormous challenge for most. As more families arrive to seek refuge each day, exponential pressure is being put on communities and humanitarian organisations who are already at breaking point.

Every pound you raise could provide:

  • Nutritious meals to help families combat hunger and malnutrition.
  • Blankets and warm clothing to bring comfort to children far from home.
  • Financial assistance that enables families to buy essential items and rebuild their lives.

Your donations, this Christmas, will bring hope to those who need it most.
