As an auxiliary to the Government of Bangladesh and a leading national humanitarian organization, the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society (BDRCS) has been instrumental in serving the most vulnerable populations affected by floods, cyclones, epidemics, and other natural and man-made disasters since its establishment on December 16, 1971. Operating through a network of 68 branches, we deliver comprehensive humanitarian assistance across the nation.
The global landscape is witnessing an alarming escalation in humanitarian crises, driven by a number of factors including the heightened frequency and intensity of natural disasters, escalating conflicts, protracted wars, mass migration, violence, and the forced displacement or relocation of populations.
