Long before the Covid-19 pandemic became a household term-and supply chain disruption a common news theme-Catholic Relief Services (CRS) was finding innovative ways to solve supply chain challenges to deliver humanitarian relief to the poorest, remotest areas of the globe. Founded in 1943 by the Catholic Bishops of the United States to serve World War II survivors in Europe, CRS now reaches more than 130 million people in 100+ countries on five continents with a workforce representing a diverse mix of race, nationalities, and religions.
