The Blue Cross is a Health Development Organisation of professionals - employees and volunteers - dedicated to caring for people who have been harmed by dependence.

There are national Blue Cross member organisations in more than 40 countries around the world.

National Blue Cross Organisations are independent non-denominational Christian organisations, each with a National Board and local organisation.

The International Federation of the Blue Cross (IFBC) is the entity that brings together all the member organisations into one body. It has a governance board - called the Network Committee - and a secretariat which supports, enables and develops the work of member organisations around the world.
