CARE INTERNATIONAL
About Company
CARE – A Leading International Humanitarian Organization
CARE is a major global humanitarian agency delivering emergency relief and implementing long-term development projects. Founded in 1945, CARE is one of the largest and oldest organizations dedicated to fighting global poverty.
CARE addresses the root causes of poverty and social injustice to create lasting change in the lives of poor and vulnerable people.
Our Belief
We believe that poverty stems from unequal power relations, which lead to an unfair distribution of resources and opportunities:
- Between women and men
- Between power-holders and marginalized communities
- Between wealthy and poor countries
Poverty cannot be eradicated without tackling these underlying power imbalances.
Our Impact
In FY18, CARE and its partners worked in 95 countries, reaching:
- 56 million people directly through 965 projects and initiatives
- 340 million people indirectly through advocacy, replication of successful programs, and scaling up innovations
