AmeriCares Charity Profile

AmeriCares is an international relief organization whose passion to help is matched by an ability to deliver. Whether it's an epic disaster or a daily struggle, AmeriCares goes to extraordinary lengths to ensure that medicines, medical supplies and aid reaches individuals in need wherever they are, whenever they need it. In a quarter of a century, we have delivered more than $8.0 billion of aid to 137 countries. AmeriCares is an I.R.S. registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. For more than two decades, the success of AmeriCares has been characterized by timely response, meaningful impact, high integrity and intense passion for the work. To deliver medicine, relief supplies and health care to the needy, AmeriCares has developed a platform based on strategic partnerships, high efficiency and tight auditing procedures.

Since its founding, AmeriCares has provided more than $8.0 billion of aid to 137 countries. To accomplish these results, AmeriCares assembles product donations from the private sector, determines the most urgent needs and solicits the funding to send the aid via airlift or ocean cargo to health and welfare professionals in the indigent locations.

On the ground, AmeriCares works with international and local non-governmental organizations (NGOs), hospitals, health networks and government ministries of long-standing effectiveness such as the Order of Malta, Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity, Adventist Development and Relief Agency International, HOPE Worldwide, Project Mercy, Centres pour le Développement et la Santé and Help The Afghan Children.
