Catholic Relief Services was founded in 1943 by the Catholic Bishops of the United
States. Our mission is to assist the poor and disadvantaged, leveraging the teachings
of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to alleviate human suffering, promote development
of all people and to foster charity and justice throughout the world. Working through
local offices and an extensive network of partners, CRS operates on 5 continents
and in over 90 countries. We aid the poor by first providing direct assistance where
needed, then encouraging these people to help with their own development. Together,
this fosters secure, productive, just communities that enable people to realize
their potential.
Over the last 65 years, CCF has broadened the scope of its work and now meets the
needs of children all around the world. In fact, CCF currently assists over 7.6
million children and families in 34 countries, including the United States, regardless

and donors, children around the world are leading healthier, safer lives. This means
they now have access to health care and safe water, immunizations, better nutrition,
educational assistance, literacy courses, skills training, and other services that

The Global Hunger Project is a global, strategic organization committed to the sustainable
end of world hunger. In Africa, Asia and Latin America, the Hunger Project has the
stated intent of empowering grassroots people to achieve lasting progress in health,
education, nutrition and family income. The Hunger Project started in 1977 as one
of many hunger-related organizations founded in the wake of the first World Food
Conference in Rome. That conference discussed for the first time the notion of "ending"
hunger (rather than alleviating hunger). Many expressed frustration that conventional
approaches and conventional thinking did not suffice to meet the challenge. The
Hunger Project sees itself as "designed to challenge conventional thinking, and
pioneer strategies which could address the root causes that gave rise to wide-spread
hunger and poverty."
Lutheran World Relief (LWR) is a non-governmental organization founded in 1945 to
respond to the needs of communities devastated by World War II. Since then, it has
evolved from a relief agency shipping material resources to war-torn Europe to an
agency that works with partners worldwide to respond to emergencies, seek lasting
solutions to rural poverty, and work for peace and justice for all. LWR works to
promote equity, strengthen organizational capacity, and empower communities to have
a voice in decisions that affect their lives, while continually learning to increase
our impact. Headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland, LWR works to reduce poverty and
injustice by helping communities increase and expand the resources they need to
live productive, healthy and empowered lives.
