What Christian aid does: :
What Christian aid does: They help improve communities in the long term by giving them access to clean water by creating water pumps. This is because in the Bible it states that : “Give, and it shall be given to you. For whatever measure you deal out to others, it will be dealt to you in return.
They help communities in the short term by giving aid in the form of food water, manpower etc. They do this because as it says in the Bible: One man gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
They help to prepare communities so that when a natural disaster does hit, there is minimum loss. They do this for example by giving radio’s to communities so that they can hear warnings.
