When you buy an I CARE gift, you really do buy that product for a poor family or community. However, if there is an excess of funds for any item purchased, CARE will redirect these to where the need is greatest within the project type it belongs to.About CARE International: CARE is one of the world’s largest aid agencies, working in over 70 countries to fight poverty and helping more than 65 million people every year.Media Contact:
