Why support Mercy Corps?
Mercy Corps is committed to long-term community-based efforts that help people help themselves. Our programs are based on:
Humanitarian need - We put the needs of children and families first, providing assistance to those most impacted by crises or endemic poverty. We plant the seeds for long-term recovery at the earliest stages of our emergency response programs.
Countries in transition - By focusing on countries or regions plagued by civil, religious and ethnic conflict, we meet critical needs while laying the foundation for building safe, just and productive communities.
Strategic partnership - We partner with in-country organizations in order to strengthen leadership and institutional capacity - and to ultimately place programs in local hands.
