Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the International Rescue Committe (IRC) provides emergency aid and long-term assistance to refugees and those displaced by war, persecution, or natural disaster. The IRC is currently working in about 40 countries and 26 U.S. cities where it resettles refugees and helps them become self-sufficient.
PhotoPacks.AI has had the privilege of teaming up with IRC to provide professional headshots of refugees and depicting them in their dream jobs. The goal is to provide assistance with professional images that can assist them in their search for employment.
PhotoPacks.AI will be donating 30% of proceeds for the month of February, 2025 to IRC.
Each refugee was provided with over 100 images that they can use to help with their job search. A small collection of those images can be seen below.
