About Tanzania Red Cross Society

“ It is our deepest honour to welcome you to join hand with Tanzania Red Cross Society. Along with its most dedicated volunteers, members, staff and the governance, we have continued working to our full potential to ensure the National Society continue to be trusted and dependable organization in the provision of humanitarian services in the country. Since its foundation in 1962, Tanzania Red Cross Society has extended humanitarian services in helping those in need both Tanzanians and refugees from neighbouring countries. Over 50 years of its existence, the National Society is on “A Paradigm Shift”, looking from different perspectives to develop appropriate plans and strategies that are significantly uplifting the provision of its humanitarian services, more effectively and accountable for the benefit of the communities served.

To keep up its humanitarian objective of alleviating the suffering of the most vulnerable, in June 2017 Tanzania Red Cross Society undertook a self-assessment (Organization Capacity Assessment and Certification-OCAC) to gauge its capacity to exist, to organize, to relate, to mobilize and to perform. These can only be achieved through a strong partnership and networking within and outside the Red Cross movement. We welcome you to go through our webpage which highlights the institutional structure, major programs and achieved milestones over the years. We believe that through the “Power of Humanity” we can do better, do more and reach the last end mile to the most vulnerable.

We welcome you to collaborate with our National Society.”

Our Vision
Tanzania Red Cross Society as a strong credible and dependable national institution that supplements government efforts in providing effective humanitarian services in the country.
