Visiting the International Rescue Committee's programs in Liberia and Sierra Leone was a life-changing experience for donors Jennifer and Peter Buffett. In one week, they met former child soldiers, survivors of sexual violence and families driven from their homes by war. Jennifer and Peter learned how IRC staff are working to improve the lives of Liberian and Sierra Leonean citizens and help them realize a more promising future.

Thanks to partnership with the Buffetts' NoVo Foundation, the IRC looks forward to doing even more in the region. We invite you to take a video trip with Peter and Jennifer.

I congratulate the IRC in being what they are and thank you for posting these videos. But...I question the IRC in the same way I questioned GreenPeace when I worked for them. How much is spent on salaries to the people who don't do the ground work? How much is spent on salaries of people who do the ground work?

It seems like a lot of self-promotion lately. And well-paid self-promotion at that.
