Safeguarding
We're committed to protecting the people we work with from sexual abuse and exploitation.
Founded in 1945 to send 'CARE packages' to people recovering from war, we have been fighting poverty in the world’s poorest countries for 75 years.
We work in 104 countries around the world, saving lives in emergencies and finding long-term solutions to poverty for millions of people every year.
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.
