CARE

A leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty and providing lifesaving assistance in emergencies

CARE is a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty. Last year, CARE programs improved the lives of more than 65 million people in nearly 70 countries. Recognizing that women and children suffer disproportionately from poverty, CARE places special emphasis on working with women to create permanent social change. Women are at the heart of CARE's community-based efforts to improve basic education, prevent the spread of HIV, increase access to maternal health services, expand economic opportunity and protect natural resources. CARE also delivers emergency aid to survivors of war and natural disasters, and helps people rebuild their lives. Get involved at www.care.org.
