The IRC responds to some of the world's worst crises, delivering aid that saves lives while paving the way for long-term recovery.
We serve
people whose lives have been upended by war, conflict and natural disasters
We work
in countries where people don’t have the support they need to recover from crisis
We respond
within 72 hours, staying to help countries stabilize and people rebuild their lives
We resettle
refugees welcomed by the United States, helping them to succeed and thrive

[The IRC] has served the world for generations. I am a proud supporter of this splendid, hard-working, efficient, beautiful organization—and I hope that you will join me.
