CARE was able to provide food assistance and poverty relief, empowerment and dignity to millions of people last year.

Thanks to our supporters, CARE was able to provide food assistance and poverty relief, empowerment and dignity to millions of people last year. This outpouring of support helped women and girls go to school, survive pregnancy and childbirth, build small businesses to increase their household income — and so much more.

When women get the tools, training and resources they need, they are empowered to improve their lives, their families and their communities. That’s why I’m grateful that so many people support CARE.

Families and communities have urgent needs that go far beyond the challenges of today, this week or this month. I’d like to ask if you will help provide the ongoing resources we need to carry out our work around the world by making a regular monthly donation of $15. It’s easy to sign up and you can change the amount of your gift at any time.

Yes, I can make a regular monthly gift of $15 to CARE’s work with poor women and girls around the world.

No, I can’t at this time.

With your monthly donation, you’ll become a Partner for Change, a special group of CARE supporters who help sustain our community-based efforts to create a better future for all. You truly become a partner in our work, as you provide the steady funding that’s needed to implement and expand CARE’s innovative and effective solutions.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Helene D. Gayle, MD, MPH

President and CEO, CARE
