For over 100 years in a row one of the most important priorities of Ukrainian Red Cross Society has been to assist the state in providing comprehensive assistance and support to the most vulnerable groups of the population. The Society runs various programs and numerous charitable projects aimed to ensure such assistance. Unlike other charitable organizations, Ukrainian Red Cross Society has a special humanitarian mandate, humanitarian initiative as a member of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and operates under the Law of Ukraine “On the Ukrainian Red Cross Society” and the Law of Ukraine “On the Red Cross, Red Crescent, and Red Crystal Symbols in Ukraine”.
