Help IRC Clients Living in Crisis Worldwide
par INTERNATIONAL RESCUE COMMITTEE INCThe International Rescue Committee (IRC) helps people whose lives have been shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover and rebuild. Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, we first helped people fleeing violence and persecution in Europe find safety in the United States.
Today, we work in over 40 countries, bringing ingenuity, fortitude and optimism to our critical work with people facing humanitarian crises. We arrive at the onset of crisis and aim to stay as long as we are needed. We deliver lasting impact by providing health care, helping children learn, and empowering individuals and communities to become self-reliant. Our work is aimed at helping clients survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities. In 2023, we reached more than 34.5 million people in countries affected by crisis.
Your gift today can help the IRC change the lives of our clients through programming, including:
• Economic Empowerment: Economic empowerment programs help our clients gain employment, start businesses and become financially stable, ensuring they get back on their feet quickly and are accorded the dignity of self-reliance.
• Mental Health: The IRC’s mental health programs empower our clients to come to terms with their experiences and develop healthy relationships, enabling them to navigate the challenges of establishing a new home in a profoundly unfamiliar environment.
• New Roots: The IRC’s New Roots program develops urban gardens, farms and markets, and offers culturally-appropriate nutrition, job skills, and leadership training that benefits our clients and their neighbors.
• Child protection: Our staff supports children through our safe spaces and other protection programs to ensure that they are not abused, neglected or exploited.
Your compassionate support to the IRC’s programs in the worldwide gives a gift that helps our clients rebuild their lives and enrich the fabric of their communities. Your gift will be used when and where it's most needed.
