The Irish Red Cross works to provide rapid emergency assistance and long-term development aid for many of the world’s most unsettled regions.
The Irish Red Cross is a proud member of the world’s largest humanitarian network. With millions of local volunteers all over the world, the Red Cross is well placed to act quickly and get the help to where it is needed when crises or disasters strike. We prioritise emergency life-saving assistance including the delivery of food and non-food items, clean water and sanitation, medical support, and shelter assistance to people affected who need it most. The Irish Red Cross is also engaged in long-term international development projects.

Families in Ukraine are facing fear, freezing temperatures, and an uncertain future. Now, more than ever, we need your help to deliver life-saving supplies to the most vulnerable. Please Donate.
