The Red Cross Movement was born out of the overwhelming compassion that a Swiss millionaire
named Henry Dunant felt for the wounded in the tragic scenario of the Austria - Sardinia war . In the year 1859, he formed a volntreer force to help the wounded. In 1863 , Red Cross was formerly started in Geneva in Switzerland.
Though basically started with the primary objective of extending service to the wounded Soldiers of war and the victims of natural calamities, today the Red Cross Movement has extended its operation to humanitarian and social service activities during peace. Spread out over 130 countries, the movement has a membership of over 25 milion.
