About CARE
CARE International is a global humanitarian organisation leading the fight to end poverty in the world’s most challenging situations. Women and girls are at the centre of our work, because we cannot overcome poverty and inequality until all people have equal rights and opportunities.

Initial targets are achievable and grounded in our current situation, and there is room for these to grow ambitiously. This is your chance to launch a programme that will be vital to CARE’s mission, with the scope to shape it around what inspires and motivates you. Along the way, you’ll develop rewarding two-way relationships with our supporters, bringing them closer to the impact they are making for women and communities worldwide.
