Polish Red Cross (Polski Czerwony Krzyż)

For more than 104 years, the Polish Red Cross has been supporting the people in need and sensitising society to human injustice and promoting the idea of selfless aid. The Polish Red Cross is active in three strategic areas: emergency preparedness in times of crisis, health and prevention activities, activating society and redressing social inequalities. The organisation operates according to 7 principles: humanitarianism, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntarism, unity and universality. The mission of the Polish Red Cross is to prevent and alleviate human suffering and to protect human dignity without any discrimination based on nationality, race, gender, religious or political beliefs. The Polish Red Cross is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, which is present in more than 190 countries.
