For decades, CARE has been there, providing food, clean water, healthcare and emergency relief. The U.S. State Department’s cancellations and pauses on international assistance, means that millions of people will no longer receive life-saving support from CARE and our local partners. From providing clean water in Ethiopia to emergency medical care in Sudan and nutrition for children in Somalia, these programs are a lifeline for families with nowhere else to turn.
CARE has launched a Triage fund to raise $2 million per week to continue the most life-saving and urgent humanitarian responses. Every dollar counts. Investing in CARE’s Triage Fund can protect millions of the most at-risk families. It allows CARE to meet our commitments to communities and deliver what is most urgent to save lives. It also gives us the flexibility to release funds when and where they are most needed.
With support from donors like you, we have been able to restart some malnutrition treatment for babies in Sudan, distribute food in Zimbabwe that was in danger of rotting, and deliver 2.7 million essential drugs to clinics in Somalia before they went bad. But we can’t stop, and your support is critical.
Every minute that these critical programs are suspended, more families and children face hunger, illness, and death. This isn’t just a pause in services—it is an unprecedented crisis that worsens every day.
Your donation to CARE’s Triage Fund will provide:
- Cash assistance to help families purchase food, medicine, and other basic necessities.
- Shelter, hygiene kits, and access to clean water.
- Education: keeping schools open and providing school meals.
- Protecting girls from early marriage and preventing and responding to sexual violence against women and girls.
CARE has been a trusted leader in humanitarian aid for 80 years, and we won’t turn our backs on those in crisis. But we can’t do this without you. Thank you for helping any way you can.
