May’s “Cause for the month” is Christian Aid
Some excerpts from their website as to what Christian Aid is all about:
“Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty.”
“We are a partnership of people, churches and local organisations committed to ending poverty worldwide.”
“We work with local partners and communities to fight injustice, respond to humanitarian emergencies, campaign for change, and help people claim the services and rights they are entitled to.”
“We aim to end poverty and injustice worldwide by focusing on five key areas. This involves working in partnership with local organisations, as well as with governments and the private sector.”
There are many opportunities nationwide to donate to Christian Aid this month. At Ipswich Road, this can be done through our special collections
