Official statement in connection with the visit of the President of the International Committee of the Red Cross Peter Maurer to Moscow
The chairman of the Odesa regional organization of the Ukrainian Red Cross Society told the Finnish “Helsingin Sanomat” about our work and regional problems.
Together with the International Red Cross Society, we held meetings with the region’s leaders. There is a lot of work, so we quickly identified the main areas of focus.
The Odesa Regional Organization of the Ukrainian Red Cross Society continues to cooperate with local authorities. Today our volunteers handed over household equipment to the Department of Social Protection of the Odesa City Council.
If you are volunteering, thinking about about it, or would like to learn more about it, the Ukrainian Red Cross Society will be happy to welcome you to the ranks of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
