Caritas is the Church in action, a global network to serve people in need. Rooted in Gospel values, we respond to crises, support recovery, and work for justice and peace.
Caritas brings together 162 autonomous organisations in more than 200 countries and territories. Present in local communities worldwide, we stand alongside people before, during and after crises.
Caritas Internationalis co-ordinates emergency operations, formulates development policy and advocates for a better world for everyone. All national Caritas organisations are members of their own regional Caritas networks and the international confederation.
Your action makes a difference. Give, volunteer or speak out and join Caritas in building a more just and compassionate world.
