International Rescue Committee

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is a global humanitarian organization that responds to the world’s worst crises. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees and displaced people. With a presence in over 40 countries and 26 U.S. cities, the IRC provides vital support to those affected by conflict and disaster.

Our mission is to help people survive, recover, and rebuild their lives. We focus on health, education, economic wellbeing, and empowerment, ensuring that individuals have the tools they need to thrive. The IRC works tirelessly to restore hope and dignity to those who have lost everything.

• Health Services: We provide essential medical care, mental health support, and nutrition services to vulnerable populations.
• Education: The IRC ensures that children have access to quality education, helping them to regain a sense of normalcy.
• Economic Wellbeing: We offer job training and financial assistance to help families achieve self-sufficiency.
• Empowerment: Our programs empower women and girls, promoting gender equality and protection from violence.

Through advocacy and partnerships, the IRC raises awareness about the plight of refugees and displaced persons, working to influence policy changes that benefit these communities. Our vision is a world where everyone can live in safety and dignity, free from fear and want.

Join us in our mission to support those in need and make a difference in the lives of millions around the globe.
