The World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day is celebrated on May 8 every year. The theme for this year’s Red Cross and Red Crescent (RCRC) Day is “Everywhere for Everyone”, showing the strength of the global network of RCRC staff and volunteers.
The RCRC is present everywhere, providing support to the most vulnerable in all contexts – from large scale disasters, challenging conflict situations, to remote and hard to reach areas where no other aid organisations have access to.
