Red Cross Society

 

The Red Cross idea was founded in 1859, by Henry Dunant, a young Swiss man, who came into focus during the bloody battle in Solferino, Italy, between the armies of imperial Austria and the Franco-Sardinian alliance. Some 40,000 men lay dead or dying on the battlefield and the wounded were lacking medical attention.
