Catholic Relief Services

As a leading international humanitarian agency, Catholic Relief Services is adapting to a changing world with accountability and innovation. Our commitment to our Gospel mission knows no bounds. Since 1943, we go where we are called—to the most remote places, to achieve the greatest impact, alongside the world’s most vulnerable people.

Whatever obstacles the world puts in our way, we will not stop until all of God’s children can fulfill their human potential in thriving families and communities, just, peaceful and vibrant societies and flourishing landscapes.

We are an organization of 8,000, working in nearly 100 countries and reaching more than 100 million of the world's poorest people each year with innovative solutions to tough problems like poverty, hunger, drought, disease and emergencies.

We work in close partnership with the Catholic Church around the world and local, national and international organizations that share our focus on finding ways to meet immediate needs while empowering communities for the long term.
