Rehena Akhter gets her son Borna ready for school in Suihari in northern Bangladesh. Devastating floods in August 2017 affected thousands of families across the region, and Akter and her family lost their home. Today they live with a neighbor, and she's hopeful she can soon borrow the money from a local savings group in order to start construction of her own home.<br /> <br /> While families in the area were still displaced by high waters, Christian Aid and the Christian Commission for Development Bangladesh, both members of the ACT Alliance, worked together to provide emergency food packages to vulnerable residents, including Akter and her family.
