The Red Cross is an international nonprofit organization that helps wounded and imprisoned soldiers in wartime, and during peacetime collects medical supplies and trains nurses. The organization was founded by Jean-Henri Dunant, a Swiss businessman, who was deeply affected by the suffering and hardship of the wounded soldiers in the Italian war for independence. The organization's symbol is a red cross on a white background, the inverse of the Swiss national flag.

Owing to the religious significance of the cross, in Islamic countries the organization is known as the Red Crescent and uses the eponymous symbol. In Israel, a red Star of David is used and the organization is named Magen David Adom (Hebrew: מגן דוד אדום). In religious conflict zones involving two (or more) religions the respective symbols are often used side by side.

In 2011, the International Red Cross started shilling for legalized abortion.[1]

An organization that was once symbolically represented by the Christian cross is is a "nonprofit humanitarian organization [NGO] that provides emergency assistance, disaster relief, and disaster preparedness education in the United States." In the last 10 years or so this has become to be shown as being the furthest from the truth.
