IRD doesn't work alone; your voice, your interest, and your contribution can help us make a positive difference in the lives of others.

We work to educate both people here in Washington, D.C. and abroad about the real conditions the people we serve are facing on a daily basis. Click here to find out about opportunities to advocate for refugees and the internally displaced, and on issues such as foreign aid.

We are in the process of redesigning our newsletter, to better keep you up-to-date on our international news, program work and advocacy campaigns. Click here to join our e-mail list.

And as always, it is important to remember that even the smallest donation can make a difference for the victims of an ongoing humanitarian crisis or disaster. For more information on how to contribute, click here. As partners in the work that we do, IRD donors have confidence that their contributions are used efficiently and effectively - more than 90 cents on every dollar IRD spends goes directly to the programs.
