It means a lot to us that the people of the Uniting Church in Australia are standing with us, through UnitingWorld."
-Rev Makoni Pulu, Free Wesleyan Church in Tonga
Stand with people fighting on the frontlines of climate change.
Hear voices of courage and resilience from Tonga and beyond.
Take up a commitment for Lent and fundraise for vital climate action led by communities most affected.
How to take action
Take on a climate challenge! For 40 days, transform the way you eat, shop, travel or use energy. Set a fundraising goal and inspire your friends and family to sponsor you.
Give generously to create a big impact. Your donation will support climate action led by people and communities on the frontlines of climate change.
Explore how your faith can inspire action, change lives and spread much-needed hope to face the climate crisis. We have great resources to inspire you on the journey.
The impact you can create
Your support will help communities in the Pacific and Asia fight poverty, build food security and safeguard lives in the face of climate change and disasters.
$20 can help our partners plant trees to stabilise landslide-prone areas and absorb carbon.
$90 can help provide seeds and tools for a family to grow their own food.
$200 can help equip local churches to lead disaster preparedness and recovery efforts.
$500 can help supply clean drinking water to a remote community impacted by drought.
$1,000 can help protect whole communities by stocking evacuation centres, securing water sources and designing early warning systems.
How will you make a difference?
Our goal
We hope to raise $200,000 through Lent Event to fund our partners in the Pacific and South East Asia who are building resilience to climate change and working to mitigate climate impacts. Every gift, large or small helps us reach our target. Thank you for your generosity!

Lent Event for churches
Our world needs people of hope and courage.
Lent Event is about building a movement of collective change and hope. It inspires courageous action across communities in Australia and in the lives of our neighbours around the world.
Supporting Lent Event as a church or community group is a powerful way to grow in discipleship and make change in the world. We will live out our calling as followers of Jesus, and we'll put in place practices that affect our lives and the lives of others for years to come.
