 * History **


 * What it does **

The Micah Challenge is a global campaign of Christians speaking about poverty and injustice. It does regular fund raises and has dates where it encourages people to speak out about Jesus and problems in everyday life, at church, in school or wherever you are.

Micah Challenge supports lots of other organisations that look out for the world, but micah challenge, as the name suggests, sets challenges every year that your church, your school or just your family can do to support global issues without donating or leaving your household.

**Work undertaken by the Micah challenge** An example of a campaign that the Micah Challenge does is the Hope for Creation, Hope for Creation is a movement of Australian Christians committing to prayer and action on climate change that happens every September 7th.
