Social Welfare Activities

It has always been priority for the Bulgarian Red Cross to provide assistance to the most vulnerable groups of the population, since the National Society is striving to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the spirit of the principle of humanity.

The care for the elderly the disabled and the sick; the social service bureaus; the care for homeless children; emergency telephone lines; the different forms of charity and compassion for the most vulnerable - these are to name but a few of the social welfare activities. By establishing its "Charity" Fund the Bulgarian Red Cross is able to provide financial assistance to needy individuals and social institutions. In carrying out its different social assistance activities, the Bulgarian Red Cross is greatly supported by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, and a number of National Societies. Different programmes financed by them, are being implemented; we receive advice, as well as clothes, food, and funds for the institutional development of the National Society.
