March 16th is Episcopal Relief and Development Sunday.



Episcopal Relief & Development partners with faith and community leaders to advance lasting change in communities affected by injustice, poverty, disaster and climate change. Inspired by our faith and in collaboration with local experts, we provide resources and programming that:


nurture early childhood development

reduce violence against women and girls

strengthen communities’ climate resilience

provide support in the wake of disasters.


Our emphasis on shared learning ensures our support is purpose-driven, compassionate, effective and respectful of the dignity of all human beings. Together, we strengthen local leadership and global connections.


For each program, we define measurable objectives and establish key data points to track. With that information, we monitor and assess program effectiveness. We share results with our partners to evaluate success and identify areas for improvement. Holding ourselves to these standards has allowed us to provide effective care, even in highly challenging contexts, to more than 49 million people in the last 10 years.
