Coronavirus has shown us that our futures are bound more tightly together than ever before.
And now it is spreading across the world’s poorest countries, putting people living in poverty at great risk.
These people are already facing a lack of water, food and healthcare. Some are homeless. Some are living with underlying health issues such as HIV.
Christian Aid’s response
Together with our local partners, we are working quickly to limit the impact of coronavirus in some of the most vulnerable communities around the world.
We are drawing on our experience from the Ebola crisis and helping communities to prevent and delay infection. We are providing essential soap, water and handwashing training. We are ensuring urgent health messages get through to help keep people safe.
We are working through our networks of church partners and faith-based organisations to reach the most vulnerable at this critical time.
We won't have the opportunity to donate by the usual envelope system this year but we can still help by logging on to:
