NEW : How to donate to the ICRC

First, we would like to thank you for your intention to make a donation to the ICRC. We are very grateful for every contribution, the more that the ICRC relies solely on voluntary contributions. Your donation will help us alleviating the suffering of victims of armed conflict worldwide meeting the needs in a conflict zone.

You have the possibility to specify which country or programme you want to support when making a donation, however we cannot accept donations for a specific school, village, project, group of individuals or to a specific area in a country. The section Where does your money go? will provide you with more details about earmarking of funds and accountability.
