About Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere
Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere Inc’s largest recent awards went to Save the Children Federation Inc, including $5.9 million in 2024 and $5.4 million in another 2024 grant, with a $4.3 million grant in 2023. Those awards point to a funder that uses large institutional grants to support humanitarian work at scale. The foundation’s giving also reaches major relief and development organizations such as Catholic Relief Services Usccb Inc, Wateraid America Inc, and Mercy Corps International, alongside research and implementation partners like The Johns Hopkins University and Howard Delafield International. Across the recent grants list, its portfolio aligns with crisis and disaster response, food and water, health, education and skills, economic growth, and women and girls. The foundation supports both emergency relief and longer-term development work, and the grant record includes programs tied to WASH, maternal and reproductive health, livelihoods, and gender equality. The presence of repeat awards to the same organizations across 2023 and 2024 suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere Inc also makes program-related investments, indicating a structure that can extend beyond standard grants.
