“The main purpose of humanitarian action is to save lives – and rapid response needs flexible resources.” Thanks to the generous support of our donors,@IFRC_DREF is a fund that gives National Societies the flexible, fast resources they need to respond to small and medium-sized crises before they escalate. 📷@nuhyilmaz #PledgeForDREF

The support from Spain for the @IFRC_DREF helps us back local action when it matters most. IFRC-DREF enables rapid response to small and medium-scale crises that rarely make the headlines, working with local National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies to act early, reduce loss and damage, and ensure funding quickly reaches the communities that need it most. #PledgeForDREF

For DRC Red Cross (@Crrdc11), backing the @IFRC_DREF is about more than rapid funding: within the Red Cross Red Crescent network, IFRC-DREF is a key engine for turning commitments into early action with a long-term investment in trust. In Kasai, DRC Red Cross was among the first to respond to Ebola in the field, which is a clear example of how that trust, powered by IFRC-DREF, translates into faster action and stronger communities. 📷@gloria_lombo #PledgeForDREF

Through @IFRC_DREF and together with our donors and partners, we are building a fund that delivers meaningful, measurable support. We are deeply grateful to the government of China for acknowledging the role of locally-led humanitarian action, having rejoined the IFRC-DREF donor community this year. This commitment strengthens our collective, action-oriented approach to providing emergency relief and other essential assistance to people in need. 📷@Amb__ChenXu #PledgeForDREF

Through @IFRC_DREF, National Societies can access rapid, flexible funding that allows them to respond within hours. IFRC-DREF is different from other humanitarian funding mechanisms: it’s fast, efficient and highly localised – reaching not only the national level, but also the local branch level where first responders are closest to people’s real vulnerabilities. By supporting IFRC-DREF, the Finnish Red Cross (@PunainenRisti) helps ensure that local branches and volunteers on the frontlines have the resources they need to act early and quickly to support communities when it matters most. A heartfelt thank you to the Finnish Red Cross for your commitment to strengthening local humanitarian action worldwide and for standing with IFRC-DREF. 📷@EeroRamo #PledgeForDREF
