International Rescue Committee

Mission

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) responds to the world's worst humanitarian crises, helping to restore health, safety, education, economic well being, and power to people devastated by conflict and disaster. Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, the IRC is at work in over 40 countries and 26 U.S. cities helping people to survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities.

Vision

After 100 years of service, we want the impact of our programs and the influence of our ideas to empower those caught in crisis to make lasting change in their lives.

Goals

1.Expand our Scale: We will increase the number of people we reach with our work, not just through our direct programming, but also by leveraging our resources and technical expertise to empower and strengthen local support systems.
2.Increase Our Impact: We will combine our sector-leading research and data-driven evidence with client-driven local contextual knowledge to deliver the highest quality humanitarian, development, and resettlement programming possible.
3.Use Our Influence: We will share our best ideas and use our influence around the world to improve the lives of all people affected by crisis.
