CARE
CARE is a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty. They place special focus on working
alongside poor women because, equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help
whole families and entire communities escape poverty. Women are at the heart of CARE's community-
based efforts to improve basic education, prevent the spread of HIV, increase access to clean water
and sanitation, expand economic opportunity and protect natural resources. CARE also delivers
emergency aid to survivors of war and natural disasters, and helps people rebuild their lives.
