Churches Action in Relief and Development (CARD) is a humanitarian-church based NGO established in 1995 and with 19 member churches.

CARD implements programmes in the areas of climate change, food security, HIV and AIDS, water and sanitation, income generation and capacity building of communities. CARD has vast experience in food security projects through solar irrigation schemes; provision of portable water through drilling of boreholes and corresponding water management; as well as promotion of use of renewable energy sources.
