The Iraqi Red Crescent - What we do.





Back to Home

Today and for the last three years, the Iraqi Red Crescent Organization has been the primary humanitarian provider on the ground in Iraq. The employees and volunteers work under severe conditions and safety is never guaranteed. Global relief agencies like the United Nations and the International Federation of the Red Cross/Crescent have not been able to sustain a notable operational presence inside Iraq.

It is up to the Iraqi Red Crescent along with its offices in Jordan, Syria, and Iran to bring to bear the technical capability, and financial support to ensure a rapid and successful response to the present humanitarian crisis facing the Iraqi people.

The Iraqi Red Crescent has been working hand in hand with the government of Iraq and the International Committee of the Red Cross. In order to respond to the internal crisis facing the Iraqi people, and at the request of various Iraqi governmental agencies and ministries but we need more. We need your help.
