Dr. Rajiv Shah, administrator for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the federal agency that administers humanitarian assistance, praised the work of faith-based organizations like Catholic Relief Services in an interview with the PBS show, Religion and Ethics Newsweekly.
Partners like World Vision or Catholic Relief Services that take the time to engage with communities they’re trying to serve, that are willing to be there for the long run, that work in partnership and cooperation with governments so that they are coordinating their efforts and getting the most out of what we—the investments we make.
