A dozen years of internal war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo caused more deaths than any conflict since World War II — nearly seven times the number of fatalities of the 1994 Rwandan genocide. It forced millions of people to flee their villages and settle into overcrowded displacement camps. We are delivering urgent relief such as clean water to these displaced survivors. We're also helping bring a more hopeful future to families through programs that focus on food security, women's safety, environmental protection, sanitation, and the supply of clean water.
