Our Finances

In 2022, the Swiss Red Cross’ (SRC) activities in development cooperation and emergency response reached a historic high of 58 million. The year was marked by the Ukraine crisis, where SRC supported affected people with 13.5 million.

Administrative costs remained very close to the level of expenditure of the previous year despite the strong increase in overall volume. The strategic decision to implement our projects exclusively via the local Red Cross / Red Crescent National Society allows for increased sustainability in implementation.

In 2022, our activities were supported by a broad donor base which showed solidarity with the most vulnerable. Our governmental and institutional partners provide continuity with regular funding and an increase in individual giving for humanitarian aid allow to adequately respond to the current crisis.
