Building resilience
Giving people a voice
We tackle the unequal power relations that cause and perpetuate poverty.
Acting on climate change
We empower vulnerable people to take action on climate change.
The injustice of poverty
Together, we can end injustice and overcome poverty.
We help people take their future into their own hands
Governance and participation
Ensuring that governments and public bodies respond to the concerns of poor and marginalised people is crucial to ending poverty.
Responding to climate change
The poorest people are hardest hit by climate change – but they are also the ones working hardest to adapt to it.
Tackling injustice
Poverty is not random, inevitable, or the fault of poor people – it exists because of injustice. So fighting poverty also means helping people stand up for their rights.
Shelter
Helping people find shelter in an emergency and rebuild their homes afterwards is a first step towards rebuilding every other aspect of their lives.
Conflict resolution
Conflict causes poverty, makes poverty worse, and stands in the way of reducing poverty. We work to prevent conflict and support people to recover from it.
Supporting refugees
There have never been more refugees and displaced people in need of support than there are today. CARE is there to help them.
We work in 79 developing countries, saving lives in emergencies and finding long-term solutions to poverty for millions of people every year.
Founded in 1945 to send 'CARE packages' to people recovering from war, we have been fighting poverty in the world’s poorest countries for 70 years.
We empower women and girls to fulfil their potential – because when one woman is helped out of poverty, she brings her family and community with her.
Your support is what makes our poverty-fighting work possible. You can trust us to spend our funds wisely and effectively to help people in need.
