The Canadian Red Cross helps people affected by emergencies and disasters – situations ranging from a housefire to a flood that disrupts an entire region of the country. The Canadian Red Cross works overseas in cooperation with other members of the International Red Cross/Red Crescent Movement situations of war and natural disaster to bring urgently needed relief items, reunite families and help rebuild communities. The Red Cross also offers a first aid program training as many Canadians as possible in first aid, providing them with the knowledge and skills to deal with any emergency situation with confidence, caring and skill...and more importantly to prevent injuries wherever possible. For many Canadians their first encounter with the Canadian Red Cross is at their local beach or swimming pool. Thanks to the work of Water Safety Services, more than 27 million Canadians have learned how to swim and safely enjoy water activities.
