YOUTH RED CLUB

The Indian Red Cross Society (IRCS) was established under the provision of section 2 of the IRCS Act XV of 1920 with its national Head Quarters in New Delhi. The core focus of IRCS is to promote humanitarian principles and values, disaster management, healthcare in community and blood services.
