Do you CARE?

CARE International is one of the world's largest independent global relief and development organisations. Non-political and non-religious, it operates in over 70 countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

With its secretariat in Belgium, CARE International's 12 members in Europe, Australia, North America, Thailand and Japan support projects that benefit more than 45 million people every year. Each of the CARE International members is an autonomous, nationally-registered, non-profit organisation, contributing to and helping manage more than 800 programmes around the world. CARE International's staff is truly international. Out of more than 12,000 employees, more than 90 percent are nationals of the countries where CARE runs programmes.

Many governments and institutions including the United Nations, World Bank, European Commission and British Government, support CARE International's programmes across the globe.
