Year in review

From providing emergency medical care and treating malnutrition, to helping children return to learning and protecting women and girls from violence, the IRC reached millions of people with practical, proven solutions when they needed them most.

None of this work is possible without supporters. Donors and volunteer support directly fund frontline programs—powering rapid emergency response, sustaining essential services and helping families move from crisis toward recovery.

Why continued support matters

Humanitarian crises do not end when headlines fade. Protracted conflicts, climate shocks and displacement continue to put millions of lives at risk. Continuous, consistent support ensures the IRC can respond quickly to emergencies while sustaining long-term programs that help families recover and rebuild. By making a monthly commitment, you can help ensure our programs continue, uninterrupted.
