Christian Aid collection
May I say a big thank you to all those who went out collecting for Christian Aid week and to all who made contributions. We have now paid into the Christian Aid account £1,664.55. We also had a lot of people Gift Aiding their donations, which adds substantially to their contribution.
Can I echo Joseph Maina a community activist in Kiambu, a slum area in Nairobi, where Christian Aid partners built sanitation blocks and have used the income generated to start to buy a plot outside Nairobi to move to and begin new lives there? Joseph says “I would like to thank people in the UK for their generous support. Without it we would not have been able to achieve this dream for ourselves.” Well done everyone and thank you.
