No matter who you are, no matter where you live, we hope that you will play a role in celebrating the Centenary of Red Cross in Australia in 2014.
Red Cross in Australia will celebrate its Centenary Year in 2014 having been formed at Government House, Melbourne on 13 August 1914 exactly nine days after the outbreak of World War I.
The goals for our Centenary Year in 2014 are:
- celebrate the achievements and contributions of 100 years of Red Cross in Australia.
- energise the Australian community to support the work of Red Cross.
- strengthen Red Cross for the future to reduce vulnerability and improve lives.
Australian Red Cross is currently calling for ideas for events and initiatives to mark the Centenary of Red Cross in Australia in 2014.
