TEARFUND IS A CHRISTIAN CHARITY, CALLED TO FOLLOW JESUS WHEREVER THE NEED IS GREATEST AROUND THE WORLD.
We help communities overcome the worst effects of poverty and disasters – we believe that the same people who face these issues, also have the best idea as to how they can overcome them.
Tearfund works alongside local churches and other locally-based organisations in over 50 countries to help people realise their plans for a better future.
In 50 years we've seen millions of lives restored and we won’t stop until poverty stops. Together there's more we can do.
WHAT WE HAVE ACHIEVED
In 2006, Tearfund launched a ten-year vision to see 50 million people released from material and spiritual poverty through a worldwide network of 100,000 churches.
This is what we achieved during those ten years, thanks to your support.
More than 132,000 churches envisioned. Churches living out faith in Jesus in every aspect of life, recognising that people are more than their hunger or despair – they are made in God's image.
Over 29 million people reached through community development projects. People living in communities that can demonstrate longer term positive changes to their livelihoods, health, relationships and environment.
