Each Thursday between now and the middle of April I'm posting something from Christian Aid about the work that they are involved in around the world. A lot of their work, as you'll see from today's slide show, involves working with smaller organisations and charities that are based much closer to the poorest communities that Christian Aid seeks to help. In this way resources are much more likely to benefit those they were intended for.
Captain America actress Hayley Atwell, travelled with Christian Aid to Nicaragua, the second poorest country in the western hemisphere. She saw how coffee cooperative 'Soppexcca', part-funded by the charity, is investing profits from its Fairtrade organic coffee to help build its children a better future.
On 21 April I'm running the London Marathon to raise £2000 for Christian Aid. You can help by sponsoring me at www.virginmoneygiving.com/keithtarring
