Acting fast when a disaster hits is critical.
CARE has been responding to emergencies since 1945 and when disaster strikes, CARE responds to emergencies in poor countries around the globe – from earthquakes and typhoons, to tsunamis and famine, from the Syria refugee crisis to the Guatemala volcano.
Your donation to our Global Emergency Fund means we can immediately provide lifesaving aid and services to those who need them most. Every year, CARE responds to emergencies and disasters that affect the lives of millions of people around the world.
First in and often last to leave
Each year, we respond to dozens of new and ongoing emergencies, providing humanitarian assistance to more than 10 million people. With emergency-response experts on the ground in over 60 countries we provide emergency food, relief supplies, water, sanitation, shelter, health care and livelihoods support to people in need. After immediate needs are met, we stay on to support affected people and communities to rebuild their lives.

Vanuatu Cyclones Emergency
In early March 2023, Tropical Cyclones Judy and Kevin left a wake of destruction across Vanuatu. More than 80 per cent of the population has been affected by the cyclones which brought floods, landslides and extreme winds. Thousands have been forced from their homes, and roads, buildings and crops have been destroyed.
Vulnerable families who have lost everything need urgent support including shelter, food, water, hygiene and health supplies.
CARE has launched an emergency response and is working together with Vanuatu’s National Disaster Management Office and our local partners to ensure essential supplies are distributed, including tarpaulins and rope so those who have lost their homes have immediate shelter, as well as clothes, towels, soap and sanitary pads so people can stay clean and safe.
Please give generously to our Global Emergency Fund so that we can immediately provide lifesaving aid and services when emergencies like this strike.
