Since its establishment, the Red Cross has been committed to providing humanitarian assistance to some needy groups. Born in this peaceful era, many people may feel that there is no need to exist, but in fact, when a major natural disaster occurs, the advantages of the Red Cross will be displayed. Do you know when the World Red Cross Day is every year? Let's look at the answer together.

May 8 every year is World Red Cross Day. At the same time, Red Cross Societies all over the world will commemorate this day in different forms. Judging from the origin of World Red Cross Day, it was founded in 1948. May 8th is the birthday of its founder, Mr Henry Dunant, so it is also designated as World Red Cross Day. Judging from the significance of the establishment of the World Red Cross, it is mainly to publicize the humanitarian thought of the Red Cross, protect human life and health, safeguard human dignity, enhance friendship and cooperation among people of all countries and promote peace.
