International Rescue Committee

Global Initiatives

With a record 120 million people displaced worldwide, the need for humanitarian aid has never been more urgent. Each year, the IRC reaches millions of people impacted by crises around the world. The Posner Foundation supports the IRC’s critical work with asylum seekers in need of protection at the U.S. southern border. They are people fleeing violence and persecution stemming from turmoil and crises across Latin America, the Caribbean, and even from other continents. The IRC has provided a range of humanitarian assistance to more than 100,000 asylum seekers each year.
