About us
Christian
Aid has a vision: a world free from poverty. To do that we are
committed to exposing the scandal of poverty, helping in practical ways
to root it out from the world, and to challenging and changing the
systems that favour the rich and powerful over the poor and
marginalised. We also recognise that in a crisis people cannot wait for
change to happen, they need support immediately. Our humanitarian work
aims to provide immediate support where necessary, doing so in a way
that can lead to lasting change in the future.
