The Red Cross volunteer service is a non-profit activity involving all levels of Red Cross organizations and Red Cross volunteers. Red Cross volunteers provide humanitarian services to society at large and individuals. Volunteer service is one of the seven basic principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. It is an important way to practice the humanitarian concept: "No volunteer service, no Red Cross movement".
