Catholic Relief Services is the international development organization of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). They provide both immediate disaster relief as well as long-term support for improving conditions for people around the world. CRS has great respect internationally for how they approach their work and the results in improving communities.
CRS Rice Bowl (an annual Lenten project) encourages families to participate in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, by introducing them to families overseas. Parishes receive Rice Bowls and information from CRS each year
