About Egyptian Red Crescent

Egyptian Red Crescent (ERC) was established in 1911 as non-governmental organization performing its activities within the principles of the International Movement of Red Cross and Red Crescent. Since then, ERC has played an important humanitarian role in Egypt and abroad. Believing in the power of humanity and the strength of our volunteer network, ERC works as an auxiliary body of the government and as a part of the international Red Cross / Red Crescent movement. We are widely perceived as a "public good" - available to everyone, everywhere, to prevent and reduce human suffering in all forms. our work is carried out by a respected network of staff, volunteers, and members.
