In 1933, Albert Einstein and a small group of humanitarians formed what would become the International Rescue Committee. Today, they deliver lasting impact by providing health care, helping children learn, and empowering individuals and communities to become self-reliant, always with a focus on the unique needs of women and girls. Their work spans more than 40 crisis-affected countries, and provide resettlement, asylum, and integration services in communities across the United States and Europe.
