Vision and Mission

Vision

We seek a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been eradicated and people live in dignity and security. CARD will be a global force and a partner of choice within a worldwide movement dedicated to ending poverty. We will be known for our unshakable commitment to the dignity of people. The cards we are dealt with are not the cards we have to live with. Change must come from within us, the will and right to live in a safe and secure world.

The right of every child to free education. We pursue our mission with both expertise and compassion because the people whom we serve deserve nothing less.
