Kenya Red Cross (KRCS) App

Since its establishment, the Kenya Red Cross Society has been a consistent and effective partner to the government in the provision of humanitarian relief services. The society has been present at most incidences and disasters, providing emergency relief services. Presently, we work closely with the government in providing support on natural disaster management for areas affected by droughts, floods, and other emergencies. KRCS is a multi-faceted organization, contributing to the improvement of health, the prevention of disease, and the alleviation of suffering. KRCS organizes, within the scope of the national plan, emergency relief services for the victims of disasters and also educates the population on on how to prepare for, and respond to, disasters. A large part of the work done by KRCS involves promoting the volunteering services of children and youth in the work of the Red Cross and Red Crescent. At the same time, it promotes the Fundamental Principles of the Movement in order to develop humanitarian ideals. Furthermore, KRCS recruits, trains, and assigns such personnel as are necessary for the discharge of its responsibilities and cooperates with the Public Authorities to ensure respect for International Humanitarian Law.
