Harvest 2023: Family Fast Day

CAFOD Family Fast Day takes place on Friday 6 October.

When flooding hit Pakistan last year, Dr Nasha's Mobile Clinic travelled hundreds of miles to treat people who needed medical help in the aftermath of the disaster. That's how they met Meera. Meera gave birth just as her home was destroyed by the floods. Meera brought her baby, Marwi to Dr Nasha who gave her medicine for her children and supplements to stay healthy. Marwi is now a healthy one year old and the family are working hard to recover what they lost in the floods.

Join together with your parish, friends and family so that local experts like Dr Nasha can reach people with the help they need in the moment they need it most.

By sharing a simple meal and giving what you save, you'll be standing in solidarity with vulnerable people who are threatened by disease and poverty, displaced from their homes and communities by the climate crisis.
