Michelle Nunn, CARE’s President and CEO, spoke with a reporter from The Atlanta Journal Constitution about the organization’s 80th anniversary, the delivery of its first food packages in post-world-war II, and the difficulties of navigating a challenging environment for foreign assistance. Below, are some of Michelle’s quotes from the AJC article:
“We have 80 years of CARE history. I have 10 years of being the leader of CARE. And I cannot imagine a year that was more challenging than the one that we have just experienced in our history. At moments, there was a consideration of whether it could be existential because there was so much uncertainty.”
“As humanitarians, we are incredibly resilient. We have an extraordinary group of people around the world who respond to the most difficult situations that are imaginable.”
