The Red Cross is the organization of volunteers par excellence in our country. In fact, 17.000 volunteers are those who can run the bulk of its humanitarian activity and lead the organization around with his charity work.
In addition, the Red Cross has the support of a technical team composed of more of 1.200 professionals, to help developing more specialized daily activities. It would not be possible to carry out all this work if it was not for the broad-based social organization, which, besides the 17.400 volunteers, it has 223.000 members. Through their unselfish financial contributions, the members help maintaining the activities of the Red Cross.
To this end, the institution also promotes working in networks with government agencies, other third sector organizations or private entities.
