The
DRK Kreisverband Ortenau e.V.
editThe DRK Kreisverband Ortenau e.V. is an important part of the Badisches Red Cross and offers a variety of services and initiatives to help people in need. With about 500 volunteers and 60 full-time employees, the association is active 365 days a year.
Main Mission and Values
editThe main mission of the DRK Kreisverband Ortenau is to help people in emergency situations, provide a strong community, and uphold humanitarian law. The association stands by the poor and needy and promotes the values of humanity, impartiality, neutrality, and independence.
Key Products and Services
edit- First Aid Courses: The association offers comprehensive first aid courses aimed at training first responders. These courses cover topics such as self-protection, wound care, dealing with injuries, and life-saving immediate measures[4].
- Clothing Store: The DRK operates clothing stores that provide well-maintained clothing and household items to people in need for free or for a small fee. This service supports people in difficult social situations and promotes a sustainable second-hand culture[2].
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editThe DRK Kreisverband Ortenau is committed to sustainable social initiatives. Through the clothing stores, not only is the supply for those in need ensured, but the socio-economic trend towards a second-hand culture is also promoted. These measures contribute to waste reduction and the promotion of an environmentally friendly lifestyle. Additionally, through volunteer work, a strong community is built that is dedicated to the welfare of people.
The association consciously refrains from formal proof of need in order to provide help quickly and unbureaucratically. These approaches demonstrate that the DRK Kreisverband Ortenau not only pursues humanitarian goals but also offers sustainable solutions for social and ecological challenges.
