U.S. International Assistance

U.S. international assistance is a smart, strategic investment. It saves lives, address the underlying causes of poverty, and strengthens global economies and security. This helps everyone, including Americans.

Most importantly, this funding helps families and communities become self-reliant, turning them from aid recipients into long-term U.S. partners and allies.

To end global hunger, CARE advocates for long-term solutions. Farmers need the right tools and resources to grow enough food, feed their communities, and improve nutrition today and in the future.

Humanitarian Emergencies

Global crises are growing more frequent while funding struggles to keep up. Strong U.S. leadership in humanitarian assistance saves lives now and builds global stability for the future. By helping communities recover and rebuild, we reduce the need for future emergency aid.
