Care

CARE (Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere) is a prominent international humanitarian organization founded in 1945. Initially established to provide food packages to families in post-World War II Europe, CARE now focuses on fighting global poverty and delivering emergency relief and long-term development projects in 104 countries.

The organization operates as a confederation of 18 autonomous national members and supports over a thousand projects aimed at addressing critical global issues. These include emergency response, food security, water and sanitation, economic development, climate change adaptation, agriculture, education, and health services. A key aspect of CARE's mission is empowering women and girls, promoting gender equality, and advocating for the rights of marginalized populations.

CARE's mission is to save lives and defeat poverty, envisioning a world where all people live with dignity and security. Its core values emphasize transformation, integrity, diversity, excellence, and equality, guiding its efforts to create lasting change in communities affected by poverty and inequality.
