Red Crescent Societies
Red Crescent Societies are humanitarian organizations that provide emergency response, medical services, and developmental aid, primarily in Muslim-majority countries, aligning with the principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. They operate to alleviate human suffering during disasters, support health and social programs, and promote community resilience. Similar to the Red Cross, they are neutral, impartial, and volunteer-led, working collaboratively with governments and other agencies to serve vulnerable populations. Their focus includes disaster relief, healthcare, blood donation, and disaster preparedness, aiming to save lives and uphold human dignity across diverse regions.
