Only three more Thursdays to go now until the London Marathon. The short video clip below demonstrates how the help of Christian Aid, through partner organisations (in this case 'the Centre for Research and Training of Peasants' or CIPCA) helps marginalised indigenous communities to work their way out of poverty.
Key to this struggle was securing the rights to the land. But this was followed by a range of initiatives. For example the community were given 20 sheep. After two years they could give 20 sheep back - to help other communities.
I am running the London Marathon to raise £2000 for Christian Aid. You can sponsor me at www.virginmoneygiving.com/keithtarring
