For 80 years, CARE has been there, every day and in times of crisis.

We are a trusted partner in creating long-term solutions and a better life for women and families around the world.

This is our commitment to ourselves, our partners, our staff, and the communities we live in and serve. No matter the challenge, we work alongside our neighbors to find solutions that are right for them. In times of conflict or disaster, we share the hardship and the recovery.

CARE is always there, and for as long as we are needed, we always will be. Whenever it’s needed, whatever happens, no matter what.

Donate now to support our work.

We focus on women and girls because we know that overcoming poverty requires equal rights and opportunities for all.
