The Kenya Red Cross Society (Msalaba Mwekundu la Kenya
in Swahili) (KRCS) is one of the many International Red Cross and Red Crescent
Movement societies around the world. The Kenya society
was established in 1965 through an Act of Parliament (Cap 256 of the Laws of
Kenya). The KRCS supports and runs a number of projects whilst raising
awareness to the Kenyan public about the current issues or problems which may
affect them. Some of the projects which are either run by or assisted by the
Kenya Red Cross are famine, blood services, first aid projects, disaster and
emergency services and education services. Esteban Rivera, 19 June 2017
