Core values

- **Addressing Societal Needs**: The Danish Red Cross, through initiatives like "Røde Kors Parat," addresses acute and vulnerable situations, providing immediate help with tasks such as grocery shopping, collecting medication, and caring for pets. This network of over 10,000 volunteers responds to significant social needs, especially for those facing sudden vulnerability[1][3].
- **Improving Quality of Life**: The organization's activities, including those by Røde Kors Hovedstaden and other branches, improve the lives of disadvantaged families, women affected by violence, detainees, refugees, the mentally vulnerable, and the homeless. They offer vital services like first aid, mentoring, accommodation, and counseling[3].
- **Promoting Positive Change**: The Danish Red Cross's thrift shops generate significant funds (over 13 million euros in 2022) that are used for various social activities, both locally and internationally. These shops also reduce the carbon footprint by promoting recycling and reuse[5].
- **Contributing to Community Well-being**: With over 40,000 volunteers across different parts of the country, the Danish Red Cross promotes community resilience, human dignity, and respect for all. The organization's efforts encompass a wide range of activities that positively impact a large cross-section of society[3].
