About CRS
Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States. CRS works in around 100 countries to save, protect, and transform lives, serving people in need regardless of race, religion, or nationality. Through trusted local partnerships, CRS delivers relief and development programs in emergency response, disaster risk reduction, health, agriculture, education, community savings, livelihoods, and peacebuilding.
CRS began working in the Philippines in 1945, making it the longest-running continuous CRS country program in the world. Today, CRS Philippines implements programs in emergency response and recovery, disaster risk reduction, climate resilience, livelihoods, and peace and development. With more than 60 staff across Manila, Cotabato City, Tagbilaran City, Iloilo City, Virac, and Malaybalay City, CRS works closely with church and civil society partners, government agencies, and other organizations to serve vulnerable communities across the country.
In the Pacific, CRS operates a program office in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), supporting community-based disaster risk reduction, emergency response, and early recovery initiatives through staff based in Pohnpei, Chuuk, and Yap.
The Philippines and FSM now operate as one Business Management Unit (BMU) under CRS’ Europe, Middle East and Asia (EMEA) regional structure. As the BMU lead country, CRS Philippines provides shared services and management oversight across key functions, including MEAL, Finance, Human Resources, and Supply Chain Management.
