YOUTH RED CROSS COMMITTEE @ KRMU, GURUGRAM

The Youth Red Cross (YRC) programs are a vital part of the strategic vision of the Indian Red Cross Society. These programs recognize and harness young people’s diverse and significant roles as innovators, cultural ambassadors, peer educators, community mobilizers, or advocates for change. Youth Red Cross members are seen as catalysts for change, working tirelessly to support vulnerable communities. When collaborating with older generations, they bring fresh ideas and energy, fostering an environment of mutual respect and cooperation. This interaction between generations promotes the exchange of knowledge and skills, with experienced Red Cross volunteers offering valuable mentorship. This synergy is essential for nurturing the next generation of leaders today.

The YRC initiatives help the Indian Red Cross Society to uphold and implement the core principles of the Movement by focusing on:

• International Humanitarian Law
• Protection of health and life
• Community service
• Promoting national and international friendship and understanding through the global network of the Red Cross.

At K.R. Mangalam University, the Youth Red Cross has been established to inspire young students with a passion for serving society. The primary goal is to instill in them the core values of the Red Cross, fostering a spirit of selfless service and volunteerism. By training zealous young students in the fundamental principles of the Red Cross, the program ensures that they remain resilient and motivated to serve vulnerable communities locally and globally. YRC at K.R Mangalam University carries out its social mission under the framework of the seven fundamental principles of the Red Cross: Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity, and Universality.
