Welcome to Micah Challenge Australia
Micah Challenge is a global campaign of Christians speaking out against poverty and injustice. Join with churches, groups, Christian aid agencies and individuals to encourage our leaders to halve global poverty by 2015. God wants us to act in response to injustice. Find out how.
