Caritas Internationalis is confederation of over 160 members who are working at the grassroots in almost every country of the world. When a crisis hits, Caritas is already on the ground.
Members of Caritas in the Middle East and North Africa work primarily on emergency response, migration, education, development, women’s empowerment, youth and volunteering, human trafficking and peace building.
Our mission is to work for a better world for those living in poverty, the oppressed, and the vulnerable. Inspired by Christian values, we work with all who are marginalized, regardless of race or religion.
We work without prejudice, we don’t preach, and we pride ourselves on celebrating diversity. We believe our Christian values are best shown through working for justice and an end to poverty in Cyprus.
Since registering as a charitable association in 1986, Caritas Cyprus has responded to humanitarian needs on the island with the aim of providing compassionate care and support to the vulnerable.
At the heart of our work are committed and compassionate Board Members, volunteers and staff.
