A lamb or baby goat can be a daily source of nutritious milk. They help farm families provide their children with well-rounded diets and increase incomes.
When homes are badly damaged, Catholic Relief Services helps survivors make them temporarily livable until more permanent repairs or shelter can be provided. From the immediate aftermath of an emergency, CRS works with communities with the goal of moving from relief to sustainable recovery.
Many poor families struggle to pay for tuition, let alone supplies. Kits include a backpack, uniform and shoes, so boys and girls can go to school equipped to learn.
Each year, more than 20 million children do not have access to basic vaccines that prevent childhood diseases, and about 1.5 million of them die unnecessarily. CRS works with partners, including local health ministries, to offer vaccines and link remote communities to vital health care.
In the places Catholic Relief Services works, many families have to pay for their children’s education, which often includes tuition, school supplies and uniforms. Providing a school uniform will get a child off to a fresh start and free up family resources for other expenses, like tuition and books.
