Nominations for the Irish Red Cross Humanitarian Awards are Now Open

But what exactly is Humanitarian exactly?
Simply stated – a Humanitarian is a person who works to improve people’s lives and reduce suffering.

This desire to help those in need is at the heart of the Irish Red Cross. To this end the annual Irish Red Cross Humanitarian Awards are a rare opportunity for us to step back and reflect on the incredible acts of kindness and support that are out there, everywhere in large and small communities – and say thank you.

Send us your nomination today. Do you know an individual or a group of people who are working selflessly to support others in their community or beyond? If so, please submit your nomination today by visiting us at www.irchumanitarianawards.ie. The closing day for submissions is March 3.

Award Categories include: Humanitarian of the Year, Youth Humanitarian, Journalism Excellence, Innovation for Change, and Corporate Impact.
