Since 1943, Catholic Relief Services has held the privilege of serving the poor and disadvantaged overseas. Without regard to race, creed or nationality, CRS provides emergency relief in the wake of disasters. CRS works to uphold human dignity and promote better standards of living through development projects in fields such as agriculture, education, health, microfinance, peacebuilding, and water and sanitation.
CRS also works throughout the United States to expand the knowledge and action of Catholics and others interested in issues of international peace and justice. Our programs and resources respond to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' call to live in solidarity as one human family.
