Galactic Red Cross

Non profit private organisation that developed form a pre astro Earth organisation called the International Red Cross. On Earth this organisation is an old and deeply respected humanitarian organisation and had spread with the human exodus all across United Earth Space and later became a recognised humanitarian agency of the Union.

GRC u=is the largest such organisation with billions of members, helpers and associates.

The GRC maintains its own fleet of eighteen state of the art hospital ships that provide aide in planet wide catastrophes. The GRC provides help to anyone regardless if they are Union Members or not.

There are famous stories that Oghr-Ogrs who hate the Union defended a GRC hospital ship because it was attacked by Jooltar Raiders.

(Their ships are not armed and do not have the formidable military grade shields the Union Fleet Hospital ships have)

The GRC also provides free emergency relief supplies, has membership drives and donation drives.

As per Assembly decision of 3403, 22 month of active service with the GRC does count as public service and meets the Citizen Service requirement to make a Union Resident into a Union Citizen
