Christian Aid

Christian Aid is a leading development agency of the UK and Irish churches. It works in some of the world's poorest countries, with people of all faiths and none, wherever the need is greatest. Christian Aid's aim is to help people to improve their own lives and to tackle the causes of poverty and injustice. Christian Aid channels funds through local community groups and church organisations. These organisations - our partners - use the money to help people directly. Money does go to emergencies when possible, but much more is devoted to long-term development. Christian Aid's new arrow-shaped logo expresses the urgency of this work.

Christian Aid's Schools and Youth Team produce curriculum resources that include the global dimension. Many of these can be downloaded directly from the main website www.christianaid.org.uk. A separate website, www.globalgang.org.uk, is designed for 8-12 year olds and those who work with them.
