Red Cross:
reaching out
On May 8, 250 million people in 145 coun-
tries cerebrate the vision of Henry Dunant, a
young Swiss businessman who 'founded the
International Committee of the Red Cross•
almost 125 years ago.'
Dunant was, born on May 8, 1828. World
Red Cross and Red. Crescent .Day has beeny
celebrated annually on his birthday since
1948:
Every year a different theme is chosen for
World Red Cross/Red Crescent Day. This
year, Red Cross/Red Crescent Societies are
publicizing efforts for the survival and
development of children through the
"CHILD ALIVE" program.
. More 'than ten million children under the
age of five die, or are disabled, every year
from disease: The CHILD ALIVE program
• aims to stop childhood deaths from preven-
table disease.
"The role of the 145 national societies; like
The Canadian Red Cross Society„ is to in-
form, educate, motivate, and mobilize peo-
ple to set up Red Cross programs, wherever
they're needed," , said Andrew Fleming,.
President of The Canadian Red Cross Socie-
ty. "Although we celebrate on May 8, every
day is World Red Cross and Red Crescent
Day.
