The CARE package is iconic and has served for many years as a representation of the best of our American ethos, while also being an international symbol of hope. As the 75th anniversary of the CARE package approaches, CARE is preparing to relaunch the CARE package as a platform enabling donations to CARE around the world is transformative — both in how it will help put purchasing power directly in the hands of those in need. The CARE Package 2.0 will be delivered in Africa, Asia and Latin America, providing marginalized women, families and communities with the tools, resources and support they want and need to lift themselves out of extreme poverty.
The Project Manager for the CARE Package will be responsible for the overall project plan to make the product a reality.

CARE is an international NGO with local staff and community partners in more than 90 countries. We create local solutions to poverty and inequality and we seek dignity for everyone every day and during times of crisis. These solutions have a broad range, from clean water to access to education; from microfinance to ensuring that everyone has nutritious food; from agriculture and climate change to disaster response. CARE puts women and girls at the center of everything we do because they have proven to be the best hope for creating lasting change in the world. Our staff live where they work, which makes us effective at understanding the challenges they face. We’ve been doing this for over 70 years, since World War II. It started with the world’s first CARE Package® of food for the post-war hungry in Europe. Our work today is as important as ever, we believe that poverty and inequality are historic injustices that we can end within a generation, for good. If you share our core beliefs: poverty is an injustice; poverty is solvable; and together, we have the power to end it, join us.
