CRS Spotlight

CRS has been recognized as a top organization in Unlock Aid’s new report! This recognition speaks to CRS’s commitment to authentic partnership, grounded in respect, trust, transparency and the Catholic Social Teaching principle of subsidiarity.

According to Unlock Aid’s report, “just 25 organizations capture more than 60% of all agency spending, including grants and contracts. Typically, the only way for more innovative firms or local organizations to work with an agency like USAID is as a subrecipient to one of their largest contracting partners. This report captures survey data regarding how the biggest prime contractors in global development and humanitarian response work with local groups and social innovators, based on survey data from the subrecipients themselves.”
