Annual Celebration for Red Cross: BRK Ingolstadt marks its 70-year tradition during their Red Cross Day event
Bavarian Red Cross Ingolstadt Embraces 2025 with Optimism and Commitment
The Bavarian Red Cross (BRK) Ingolstadt is gearing up for an active year ahead, reaffirming its dedication to supporting the local community under the motto #weareforingolstadt. The organization's 70th annual Three Kings meeting, held on January 6, 2025, at the Red Cross house in Ingolstadt, marked the beginning of this promising journey.
During the meeting, Circle Business Manager Firat Avutan delivered a speech, expressing gratitude towards all employees, whether full-time or voluntary, for their commitment and dedication. He particularly praised the tireless commitment of the voluntary communities, which played a crucial role in the organization's achievements in 2024.
In the previous year, the BRK Ingolstadt made a significant impact in its established business fields, with over 7,334 participants acquiring first aid skills, including English courses and special courses for dog owners. Moreover, a total of 11,500 trips were made for mobility-restricted people, and the home emergency background service performed 344 missions.
However, the road ahead is not without its challenges. Firat Avutan highlighted the difficulties that volunteering may face in the coming year, citing historical regional tensions, local challenges, and competition for volunteer time as potential obstacles. Evolving social expectations and the need for meaningful recognition are also factors that could impact volunteer engagement.
Despite these challenges, the BRK Ingolstadt is determined to continue its mission of providing support and aid to people in need in the social sector, healthcare, the rescue service, humanitarian aid, and disaster relief.
