Catholic Relief Services

    Catholic Relief Services carries out the commitment of the Bishops of the United States to 
    assist the poor and vulnerable overseas. They preserve and uphold the sacredness and dignity of 
    all human life, foster charity  and justice, and embody Catholic social and moral teaching as they 
    promote human development by responding to major emergencies, fighting disease and poverty, and
    nurturing peaceful and just societies.  They serve Catholics in the United States as they live their 
    faith in solidarity with their brothers and sisters around the world.  As part of the universal mission 
    of the Catholic Church, they work with local, national and international Catholic institutions and 
    structures, as well as other organizations, to assist people on the basis of need, not creed, race or 
    nationality.  Many of their programs involve funding clean water issues.
