Artists, athletes and thought leaders from around the globe support the International Rescue Committee and its mission. We are honored to partner with a distinguished group of ambassadors committed to uplifting and championing our work of helping refugees and other people facing crises to survive, recover and take control of their lives.

Who are refugees and displaced persons? They are men, women and children fleeing war, persecution and political upheaval. They are uprooted with little warning, enduring great hardship during their flight. They become refugees when they cross borders and seek safety in another country.
