Nur Mohammed from Bangladesh.Tearfund helps people all over the world respond in emergencies and prepare for future disasters. We can't stop disasters happening, but we can save lives when they strike.

We are Christians passionate about the local church bringing justice and transforming lives - overcoming global poverty.
So our ten-year vision is to see 50 million people released from material and spiritual poverty through a worldwide network of 100,000 local churches.
