International Rescue Committee

Founded at the call of Albert Einstein in 1933, the IRC is now at work in over 50 crisis-affected countries and communities throughout Europe and the Americas. We deliver lasting impact by providing health care, helping children learn, and empowering individuals and communities to become self-reliant, always seeking to address the inequalities facing women and girls.

We are also a resettlement agency that works with refugees and Immigrants. 

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) helps people affected by humanitarian crises—including the climate crisis—to survive, recover and rebuild their lives.
