Red Cross Movement
The third article of the Universal Declaration of human rights said: ¨Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person¨[i] when we speak of humanitarian movements; the first thing I remember is the Red Cross, because it protects the life of the people. It is a noble non-profit institution, dedicated to saving lives every day. We have all been helped, directly or indirectly by this institution and sometimes we forget that it needs our help.
How can we help? Here are some ways you can help, and get involved with the Red Cross, por example, given your money, time and blood. You have the power to make a difference in someone's life. All you have to do is make a contribution. Every donation helps provide services to those in need. You can make a difference every day. You can help comfort victims of a house fire or teach a pet first aid class. Whether you are interested in community services, international services, disaster services or any of the other lines of services in the Red Cross, you'll find something that fits your niche.
You can help prevent-life threatening reactions of patients. Donor blood must be compatible with the recipient's blood, and it is very likely that a donor within the same racial/ethnic group will be a better match. You can make a difference every day. No matter what your interests are, you'll find something that you enjoy at the Red Cross. Become an employee and see first hand how we work together to provide relief and help save lives.
The work it performs is based in the seven principles of the Red Cross International. They are proclaimed in Vienna in 1965, they guarantee the continuity of the Red Cross movement and its humanitarian work. They principles are: Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary, Unity and Universality.
The movement was born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavors, in its international and national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature. It is independence to the all governments, no matter they are National or International.
The Voluntary service relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain. The unity is meaning, those can be only one Red Cross or one Red Crescent Society in any one country. It must be open to all. It must carry on its humanitarian work throughout its territory. It movement are , in which all Societies have equal status and share equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other, is worldwide.
These principles represent the commitment of an institution and its personnel with all mankind. It is a commitment to service, to sacrifice and total dedication to other. Therefore, we must collaborate, because any donation we can to give for the Red Cross, we make for ourselves and our families. I have donated blood; I've also worked to buy a "ticobingo." But our help can go any nurse, participating in support groups that each local Red Cross. The humanitarian work the Red Cross developed is wonderful.
