ACE Group announced today that the ACE Charitable Foundation has
made a $250,000 grant to support the International Rescue
Committee’s work to deliver critical and lifesaving aid to
vulnerable families fleeing to Europe from Syria and other conflict
zones. An additional $30,000 in contributions from ACE employees
has been matched dollar-for-dollar by the foundation. ACE’s
response to the refugee crisis throughout Europe and the Middle
East, including the grant, employee contributions and match, totals
nearly $310,000.
“The International Rescue Committee is providing relief to
millions of people who are fleeing violence and terror in Syria,”
said Evan Greenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ACE
Group. “IRC’s response on the ground, including providing medical
aid, clean water and sanitation, is essential in the face of this
escalating human tragedy.”
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is a global leader in
emergency relief, rehabilitation, protection of human rights,
post-conflict development, resettlement services and advocacy for
those uprooted or affected by violent conflict and oppression. The
IRC was one of the first aid organizations to assist the thousands
of refugees arriving each day on Lesbos, Greece.
