FAQs
CARE works alongside philanthropic advisors, family offices, private wealth teams, and donor-advised fund sponsors as a strategic partner — not simply a grant recipient. We understand that your role is to help clients deploy capital with confidence, and we’re structured to support that process at every stage.
That means we provide investment-ready briefs aligned to your clients’ priorities, rapid-response insights during global crises, programmatic and financial diligence materials, and direct access to CARE’s thought leaders and teams on the ground. Whether your client is exploring global philanthropy for the first time or deepening an existing commitment, we make the process strategic, credible, and straightforward to execute.
CARE structures opportunities across three interconnected areas:
- Humanitarian Response and Resilience: Crisis response, disaster preparedness, and climate adaptation
- Women’s and Girls’ Economic Empowerment: Education, economic mobility, and leadership
- Systems-Level and Policy Change: Advocacy and market systems development
Each opportunity includes clearly defined outcomes, geographic focus, scalable funding levels, and a tailored reporting cadence. Opportunities range from targeted, single-country programs to multi-country portfolios addressing systemic challenges.
For clients considering significant or multi-year commitments: CARE regularly partners on six- and seven-figure grants, multi-year pledges, collaborative funding models, and strategies that scale proven approaches across regions. Our presence in 120+ countries allows us to responsibly deploy substantial philanthropic capital — including in complex and underserved environments where few organizations can operate effectively.
CARE focuses on measurable, lasting outcomes — not output metrics alone. Our monitoring, evaluation, and learning systems track indicators across economic mobility, health and education access, women’s and girls’ agency, and climate resilience.
All indicators align with internationally recognized development frameworks, including the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and are designed to capture meaningful change over time rather than short-term activity counts.
Our reporting is tailored to meet your needs and your clients’ expectations. Options include written program updates, quantitative dashboards, and direct briefings with CARE’s program, finance, and country office leadership.
Yes. CARE regularly receives and processes grants from national and community DAF sponsors, including Fidelity Charitable, Vanguard Charitable, DAFgiving360, the National Philanthropic Trust, and community foundations nationwide. We work directly with advisors and sponsoring organizations to ensure smooth grant processing and reporting.
We support a range of structures, including:
- Single-year and multi-year DAF grants
- Crisis response activation with rapid deployment
- Program-restricted or fully flexible funding
- Multi-country and cross-border initiatives
If your client’s giving involves other complex vehicles or assets — such as private foundations, charitable LLCs, or international giving structures — we’re happy to discuss how CARE can accommodate those as well.
Operating in over 120 countries — including fragile and conflict-affected settings — requires rigorous financial controls and institutional accountability. CARE maintains robust systems across every operating context, including:
- Independent annual financial audits conducted by a major international accounting firm
- Strict grant compliance protocols aligned with U.S. government and multilateral funder requirements
- Safeguarding and accountability frameworks that protect the communities we serve
- Enterprise risk management systems overseen by CARE’s board and senior leadership
- Legal registration and regulatory compliance in each operating country
We understand that your clients and institutions may have their own due diligence requirements. We’re happy to provide additional documentation in addition to our Due Diligence package and resources, answer specific compliance questions, or connect your team with CARE’s finance and compliance leadership to support any review process.
CARE offers tailored engagement aligned with the structure, scale, and objectives of each investment.
Engagement may include written impact updates, structured program briefings, and virtual or in-person conversations with CARE’s global and field leadership. For more significant or strategic investments, CARE provides customized impact reporting, curated learning opportunities, and select field engagement experiences designed to deepen understanding and strengthen long-term partnership.
Our approach balances clarity, responsiveness, and disciplined reporting with thoughtful access to insight and leadership. Engagement levels are aligned with the scope and complexity of the investment and structured to support both advisor and client objectives.
