yrc-unit

The Youth Red Cross (YRC) unit of our college functions under the guiding principles of the Indian Red Cross Society — Humanity, Impartiality, Neutrality, Independence, Voluntary Service, Unity, and Universality. The unit aims to promote humanitarian values among students by encouraging volunteerism, leadership, and social responsibility.

Through various activities such as first aid training, blood donation camps, health awareness programs, disaster preparedness sessions, and motivational campaigns, YRC nurtures compassion and civic sense among youth. The unit also observes important days like World Blood Donors Day, Geneva Convention Day, and International Day Against Drug Abuse, reinforcing the spirit of service and humanity. 

By actively engaging in YRC programs, students develop the knowledge, skills, and attitude required to respond to emergencies and contribute meaningfully to society — upholding the Red Cross vision of protecting life and promoting human dignity.
