How we help

We help where we are needed. We provide immediate humanitarian aid to people affected by war or natural disasters. In development cooperation, we help people get on their feet and earn a living. We focus on health and social care development, environmental protection and work on systemic change.

Humanitarian aid

Humanitarian aid is crucial during natural disasters and war conflicts. In crises, we focus primarily on providing basic needs such as food, water and shelter

Development cooperation

Development cooperation aims to help people get back on their feet and get a source of livelihood. We are also working on systemic changes in healthcare, social services and environmental protection.

Caritas Czech Republic provided comfort for twelve vulnerable families in the western Ukraine

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Caritas Czech Republic has been providing decent living conditions for war-affected families in western Ukraine. Recently, we purchased essential household appliances for 12 flats in the village of Kernytsia, in the Lviv region. Here, the local community, together with charitable organisations, transformed the former village council building into social housing. Thanks to this, Olha and her young children now have a safe new home.

Jasphine from Zambia lost both her mother and her sight at an early age, but managed to overcome all hardships

Jasphine has certainly not had an easy life, but she has never given up. Despite her visual impairment, she manages to care for her three children while continuing her education. However, due to a lack of financial resources, it was not easy for her. She therefore joined a savings group, through which she managed to save enough funds to continue her schooling – thanks also to the support from Caritas Czech Republic.
