A safety network for everyone living in Finland

Finnish Red Cross volunteers are ready to help anywhere in Finland on any day of the year. They help in case of accidents, provide support in crises, distribute food aid and, in exceptional circumstances, take care of people who live alone.

Friend volunteers work to reduce loneliness. The Youth Shelters offers young people and their relatives help with challenges in everyday life and in conflicts.
