Catholic Relief Services carries out the commitment of the of the to assist the poor and vulnerable overseas. We are motivated by the Gospel of Jesus Christ to cherish, preserve and uphold the sacredness and dignity of all human life, foster charity and justice, and embody social and moral teaching as we act to: • Promote human development by responding to major emergencies, fighting disease and poverty, and nurturing peaceful and just societies; and, • Serve Catholics in the United States as they live their faith in solidarity with their brothers and sisters around the world. As part of the universal mission of the , we work with local, national and international Catholic institutions and structures, as well as other organizations, to assist people on the basis of need, not creed, race or nationality.

Approved by the Board of Directors on September 11, 2008. If You Could Only See How Far You Reach

Dear Friend, Although we live in challenging times, you show amazing compassion and generosity. Your commitment to our most vital mission of assisting poor and vulnerable people overseas is an inspiration. In fiscal year 2010, private support to Catholic Relief Services was an astounding $294 mil- lion — a large portion from dioceses and parishes across the United States. We augmented this private support with $625 million from the U.S. government and other organizations, and, as a result, our operating revenues reached $919 million — an agency record. Here’s what those numbers mean: You made it possible for us to be of service to more than 100 million people overseas in nearly 100 countries. The January 2010 earthquake in Haiti was a disaster of horrific proportions, and you responded with overwhelming compassion. What your generosity makes possible is a $200 million long-term plan to help the people of Haiti recover from their catastrophic loss. Because of our strong and long-standing partnerships with the Church in Haiti, CRS was able to act immediately, delivering food, water, shelter, health care and other necessities to more than a million people. CRS is working closely with the Catholic bishops of Haiti and the United States to ensure that we will remain with the people of Haiti for years to come as they lead their country to a brighter future. In fiscal year 2010, we also took on what many thought was a hopeless task: supporting a peaceful referendum on secession in southern Sudan. Millions have died in decades of fighting, and many feared the country would return to violence. Your generosity helped us make a major commitment of resources to peacebuilding in Sudan. We worked mainly with the Church — priests and bishops who have survived decades of war and are reaching out to all members of their community to defuse tensions. Although the referendum took place after the end of the fiscal year, I can report that it was more peaceful than anyone expected. With your support, we are helping the Sudanese into a peaceful future. When unprecedented flooding struck Pakistan in August, CRS staff risked their lives in raging waters and on rickety rope bridges to aid some of the millions displaced. And staff responded not long afterward when people’s lives were upended following storms in India and . All of this work was made possible through your invaluable contributions. As participants in the AIDSRelief consortium, we continued to bring lifesaving medications to hundreds of thousands. CRS reached a milestone when we turned the management of the program in South over to our local partner, the Southern African Catholic Bishops’ Conference. That’s what we’re working to do with every one of our AIDSRelief partners. We’re helping them to become strong enough to take over this life-changing work and build local institutions that are part of a robust health care system — all thanks to your support. It is these efforts and the many other ongoing CRS programs that you help make possible: growing food, providing water, treating disease and helping the many who have been devastated by disease and disaster. Because of your support, we are seeing a groundswell of solidarity between Catholics in the United States and the poor people of the world. Our speakers’ tours and Global Fellows reached into parishes, and our Campus Ambassadors and Global Solidarity Network forged bonds of solidarity with those on college campuses. And, even in a tough economic year, Catholics compassionately donated almost $6 million to Operation Rice Bowl, our Lenten program of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. As many of you know, 2011 will be my last year as president of CRS. At my request, the board of directors has begun a nationwide search for a new president to lead CRS beginning in 2012. It has been a true privilege to serve you as you reach out to the world’s poorest people. I can’t think of a more critical mission than the one we’ve been on together. As always, I thank you for your compassion and your steadfast support,

Ken Hackett President If you could see what I see at Catholic Relief Services, you would understand why I have so treasured being your chairman of the CRS board as you reach out to the poorest and most vulnerable of our brothers and sisters around the world. I wish you could have seen the tireless work by CRS in Haiti when I visited there a week after the earthquake for the funeral Mass for the of Port-au-Prince. The cathedral was in ruins, as were so many other buildings and countless homes, but the Church was strong — as resilient as the people of Haiti. And CRS was there — and is there still, as it has been for almost six decades — working with a Catholic hospital, with Church-run and many other institutions, and serving hundreds of thousands of people. The same is true in southern Sudan, where the Church was the only institution standing in most communities devastated by decades of civil war. CRS set to work with the Church, with the many religious people from around the world who made peace in Sudan their vocation, and with many others to make sure that a historic referendum on secession was accomplished peacefully. The Church is all over the world, in the poorest and neediest of communities, and CRS is there too, working with people of all faiths and with institutions of goodwill, at every turn seeking to fulfill the gospel of Jesus Christ, bringing hope where it is needed the most. As you know, just after the end of the 2010 fiscal year, I was elected president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and, thus, reluctantly had to give up the CRS chairman- ship. If you could see what I have seen over the past 3 years, you would know how sad I was to leave that post, how pleased I am that Gerald Kicanas of Tucson, Arizona, agreed to become your new chairman, and, most of all, how grateful I am for having had this opportunity to serve you. God bless you as you reach out to those in most need. Yours in Christ,

Marie Lucienne Charles stands proudly in her new home, one of thousands of transitional shelters constructed — through your compassionate generos- ity — by Catholic Relief Services in the aftermath of the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, 2010. Working with local partner Hospice St. Joseph, a ministry of the Diocese of Norwich, Connecticut, CRS has hired hundreds of Haitians in cash-for-work programs. Workers cleared rubble and ground it into sand and gravel to be used for concrete floors in new temporary shelters. 7

With your help, Haiti is just beginning a slow recovery from the catastrophic earthquake, which killed more than 230,000 people and displaced 2 million more from their homes. Only when you con- sider that — before the quake — Haiti was the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere can you begin to imagine the challenges facing the Haitian people. Yet, thanks to your overwhelming generosity, the people of Haiti are looking forward to new opportu- nities. Your compassion helped us feed more than a million people, provide emergency shelter to about 275,000, provide an average of 375,000 gallons of clean water per month, and support more than 900 food shortage that left nearly 7.5 million Nigeriens emergency surgeries and 64,000 medical consulta- without enough food and forced many to live on a tions — most at the nearly destroyed Catholic hospital gruel of water and millet husks, usually reserved for St. Francois de Sales.

YOU 11 Give Food For Life

On a small farm in northeastern Nicaragua, Reynaldo Bautista tends rows of tomato plants under a blazing sun, carefully pulling weeds from the fertile soil. Traditionally, farmers here have grown food to feed their families and maybe a bit more to sell at local markets. But these tomatoes are destined for sale beyond the borders of the rural region Esteli, where they will bring much-needed income to farmers in an area where many families live on less than a dollar a day. Farmers like Reynaldo are receiving a boost from ACORDAR (Alliance to Create Opportunities for Rural Development through Agro-Enterprise Relation- ships), a consortium led by Catholic Relief Services to help farmers transition from selling harvests locally — where pay is low and unpredictable — to national, regional and international markets. Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development, ACORDAR enables small-scale farm- ers to improve crop quality and yield, and to link with competitive markets that will increase their income. Investing in agricultural programs is one of the best ways to guarantee that families can reliably feed themselves well into the future.

In fiscal year 2010, CRS was able to respond to a severe food crisis in the West African country of Niger, where a combination of devastating floods followed by severe drought put millions in jeopardy. Thanks to your generosity, CRS assisted nearly half a million people mostly with food and also with cash-for-work projects, such as digging trenches to capture rainwater. And here in the United States, CRS helps high school students learn about hunger through Food Fast, a program that teaches young people about hunger and poverty around the world and in their own communities. Last year, the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry’s endorsement of Food Fast brought the program to even more teens and young adults.

Students at the Olikwi Primary School in southern Sudan bask in clean water — a remarkable turning point for their generation. For many children their age, finding water is a phys- ical endeavor: They have no tap to turn on. The walk to the nearest river or stream is several miles, a trek mostly women and children make. Women describe chronic neck pain from a lifetime of carrying water, and children, especially girls, often do not attend school because they must fetch water for the family. But your generosity is helping to change all that. Families’ lives are improving dramatically because of what you help make possible: innovative water projects that bring pumps, wells, troughs, toilets, irrigation, income and health education close to home. The effects are imme- diate and long lasting: Children go to school and are healthier; fields thrive and farmers prosper; livestock fattens up; women have time for other priorities; and community leaders are equipped to manage the proj- ects well into the future.

When you look at Angelina Zativok’s bright smile and her healthy eyes, it’s hard to believe that the ema- ciated figure in the photograph she holds is the same person — or that such a transformation is possible. Angelina was diagnosed with HIV in 2002; her husband, Emmanuel, a year later. The virus took its toll until 2005, when they went to St. Louis Hospital in Zonkwa, Nigeria, for treatment. Angelina’s picture shouts out the effective- ness of antiretroviral therapy, which was too expensive for most people with HIV before the year that Angelina and Emmanuel visited St. Louis Hospital. In that year, AIDSRelief, with funding from the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), began providing antiretroviral therapy in Nigeria. As the lead member of the AIDSRelief consortium, Catholic Relief Services helped Photo by Karen Kasmauski for CRS provide 192,000 people with antiretroviral therapy Thanks to your support, CRS’ efforts do not stop in fiscal year 2010, including more than 38,000 in with antiretroviral treatment.

“I am so proud that I can support my children,” says Chuob Chhieng Eng, a 47-year-old widow in Cambodia. Chuob is one of the 90,000 Cambodians changing their lives through small loans from Catholic Relief Services’ local partner Thaneakea Phum — which in Khmer means “village bank.” Using an initial loan to buy startup materials, Chuob now bakes and sells about 500 steamed dumplings, also known as “Chinese cakes,” each day. The profits allow her to pay school fees for her six sons. By making sure her children get an education, Chuob is helping to ensure their future success. Thaneakea Phum was launched in 1995 with support from the U.S. Agency for International Development and the McKnight Foundation as a microfinance project to serve 350 people.

The desire to give children greater opportunities is one held by parents worldwide. Through the compas- sionate generosity of our donors, CRS can support this universal dream by helping families improve their quality of life. In India, a program funded by the Vista Hermosa Foundation reunites children with their families after they are rescued from trafficking and abuse. Across Africa, CRS connects farmers to larger markets and promotes proven farming techniques to help them put more food on the table. Creative cell phone applica- tions teach rural Nigeriens to read and allow farmers to monitor market prices for greater profits. Through- out the Middle East, compassionate counseling helps Iraqi refugees heal from harrowing trauma. Vulnerable families in the Palestinian Territories learn marketable skills and find dependable work through CRS’ food assistance programs. In the United States, families buy fair trade products that support hardworking people across the globe. These are just a few examples of how your generosity is helping the world’s poorest people break out of crushing cycles of poverty, adversity, illiteracy and hardship. With every benefit gained and extra dollar earned, you are helping these families build brighter futures for generations to come. Members of CRS Microfinance Projects…

In 2010, Catholic Relief Services supporters Barb and Greg Melsen traveled to Ethiopia and Tanzania to visit dynamic water, health, agriculture and financial savings programs. “The ability to communicate with local people, to shake their hands and to better understand their lives was very special,” says Barb, “as was the chance to be in villages and to spend time with the people.” Barb describes the CRS staff and partners as “highly qualified and dedicated,” adding that, with their knowledge in their fields of expertise, “they were excellent teachers when sharing their experiences.” “We left Africa with some wonderful new friends,” says Barb.
