- can of worms
If you’re a Bolivian farmer and you want to fertilise your fields, you can’t do much better than worms. Organic, cheaper and better for the environment than chemicals, they enrich the soil and help produce more and better crops. They can make such a difference that farmers may even have a surplus to sell, giving them extra cash to pay for education, shelter and medicines. A gift like this really can do an awful lot. - Disaster Kit
Imagine losing your home and everything you worked so hard for in a devastating flood like the one that hit Bangladesh in 2004. A disaster survival kit such as the one Christian Aid partner Friends in Village Development Bangladesh gave to local villagers contains essential items like food, matches, oil, blankets and cooking utensils. A gift like this can make a huge difference to a family living through an emergency. - School Shoes
Abeda Banda wants to be a lawyer. But first she needs to complete her education and sit her final year exams. And to do that she needs a school uniform – right down to the shoes. Christian Aid’s partner ADL provides people like Abeda and other children affected by HIV with everything they need to continue their education – from school shoes to school fees. A gift like this could help ensure that young people have the chance of a better future. - Mosquito nets
After storms and floods, stagnant water provides the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes. Luckily, mosquito nets like these provide the perfect protection against the deadly malaria that mosquitoes carry.
