Problem

The poorest families in the world tend to lack the resources they need to prepare for natural and man-made emergencies. When disasters do strike, impoverished people are more likely to lose their homes, livestock and crops. CRS is devoted to helping the poorest farm families be better prepared for the next catastrophe.

The Gift

Your gift will strengthen the capacity of communities to manage risks and prepare for disasters. This project works to prevent the devastating effects of catastrophes in vulnerable villages. CRS and our partners work closely with local authorities to provide comprehensive emergency response plans. Your generous gift of $30 will help train 10 community members for one year.
