We rush emergency relief

Catholic Near East Welfare Association is not an emergency relief organization by purpose or design. Yet, the reality of the world in which we work demands we respond to the human needs of the people served by our partners on the ground.

In the last few years, the coronavirus pandemic, civil war in Ethiopia, violence between Gaza and the State of Israel, the socioeconomic collapse of Lebanon, and Russia’s war on and in Ukraine have required CNEWA to respond quickly, prudently, safely, and effectively.
