Sign up for the Big Lent Walk and you'll help communities thrive in even the most difficult environments.
The decision by the government to reduce overseas development assistance from 0.5% to 0.3% means that, in some of the most vulnerable places on earth, more people will die and many more will lose their livelihoods.
But with your parish's support for our Lent Fast Day Appeal you can share hope with these communities and stand with them in solidarity against the impact of this cut.
We have partners making a difference right now across the world, committed to working wherever the need is greatest.
Partners like Wakera, helping women in Kenya to adapt to a changing climate. When drought hit, he shared his expertise and provided mothers like Lokho with the tools and seeds they needed to grow food for their families.
Lent Family Fast Day was on Friday 14 March but it's not too late to get involved! Your parish's support will help mums like Lokho to grow food in harsh climates, building safety nets for their families.
