Our Commitment to Nigeria people goes beyond our current humanitarian work to exploring and initiating longer-term development programs that address underlying causes of poverty and vulnerability in Nigeria. CARE aims to support vulnerable people who are affected by conflict, natural disasters and poverty across four key programming areas: Food and Nutrition Security and Livelihoods, Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights, a Life Free from Violence (Gender-based Violence Prevention and Response) and Women’s Economic Empowerment through its Flagship ‘Village Savings and Loans Association (VSLA) approach. Officially registered in April 2017, CARE is in its fourth year operating in Nigeria, predominantly in the conflict affected Northeast, and in the Northwest. We are strongly inspired and guided by our Core Values of Transformation, Integrity, Excellence, Diversity and Equality. We put women and girls in the center of our work because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities. Our Mission is to work around the globe to save lives, defeat poverty and achieve social justice. CARE vision is to seek a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and all people live with dignity and security. We are known everywhere for our unshakable commitment to the dignity of people.


CARE is a global humanitarian and development leader within a worldwide movement dedicated to ending poverty.
