Christian Aid
Christian Aid is a partnership of people, churches and local organisations committed to ending poverty worldwide. We were established so that the 7 sponsoring churches and others could respond to Christ’s command to care for all in need. Christian Aids work is in response to God’s gift to the world, of his son Jesus Christ. Jesus promised ‘good news’ for the poor and ‘freedom’ for the oppressed, calling us to action. 1st Donegore’s partnership is most evident in our involvement in Christian Aid week during May each year.
