Thank you for believing in our mission to end extreme poverty, whatever it takes.
You are standing in solidarity with the communities we work with – communities displaced by conflict, hit hardest by the impacts of climate change, and facing the threat of extreme hunger. And you are not alone.
The work we do is only possible with our incredible supporters.
You are part of the Concern community
Without your support, the life-changing and life-saving work that Concern delivers would not be possible.
From Gaza to Sudan, from Bangladesh to Ukraine, and throughout the 26 countries where we currently operate, you are with us every step of the way.
Testimonials from around the world
For almost 60 years, the work of Concern Worldwide has been amplified from world leaders to cultural icons to sporting superstars, all of whom recognise - along with you - the importance of a world where nobody is left behind.
Here are some of their testimonials:
"I just want to say how proud I am of... Concern and other NGOs that have stepped into the breach… The staff is doing work that I would only describe as heroic."
"Throughout my 40 plus years, Concern has been everywhere – a great partner wherever I was and to UNHCR in particular."
"It’s remarkable that Concern... [has] been here for 20 years [and has] been doing very good work, at quite a bit of risk for themselves... Concern has great trust here in Somalia."
"'Who is my neighbour?' Concern teaches us: 'My neighbour is all mankind.' There is heroic virtue in the work it does, [and by] helping Concern we can fulfil some of the great human obligations."
Kofi Annan and Seamus Heaney heap praise on Irish humanitarians
"[Concern has] a capacity or ability to identify those humanitarian needs, not necessarily something that is in the press, something that is sexy."
"I think everyone should take a few moments every day to remove themselves from the world that they live in – the lucky world they live in – I can assure them that there are millions of people across the world in worse places. I’ve seen first-hand how donations to Concern are genuinely put to work and they do make a difference."
Your belief in the work that we do and your ongoing support means that we can deliver on our promises to vulnerable communities across multiple programmes. Whether it's emergency care, access to education, health initiatives or supporting people to build their own livelihoods in the most difficult of circumstances, you're with us. And we can't thank you enough.
