The work we do in Yemen
Child Poverty
Half of all children live in poverty, spending their formative years struggling to survive.
Youth Empowerment
Addressing the needs of the 1.8 billion young people in the world is critical to ending poverty.
Girls' Education
The majority of the 57 million children out of school are girls — their future is at risk.
Poverty & Social Justice
Everyone in the world has the right to a life free from poverty, violence and discrimination.
Child Marriage
Child marriage is a gross human rights violation that puts young girls at great risk.
Violence Against Women
Gender-based violence is one of the most pervasive and yet least-recognized human rights abuses.
Why Women & Girls?
Why does CARE fight global poverty by focusing on women and girls? Because we have to.
