WMSU-ILS HS  ·  SCHOOL YEAR 2026–2027

Trained to help.
Ready when it counts.

The Senior Red Cross Youth Council trains students in first aid, disaster preparedness, and voluntary blood service — then puts that training to work in our school and community.

Our Mandate

Seven fundamental principles

In all that we do, we are guided by the principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.

Humanity

Prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found.

Impartiality

No discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class, or political opinions.

Neutrality

We do not take sides in hostilities or engage in controversies of a political, racial, religious, or ideological nature.

Independence

We remain autonomous to act in accordance with the principles of the Movement.

Voluntary Service

We are a relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain.

Unity

Open to all, carrying out our humanitarian work throughout the entire territory.

Universality

Equal status, sharing equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other worldwide.
