RRC - Overview



 

        The Red Ribbon Club (RRC) is an initiative launched by the Government of India in schools and colleges to empower students in spreading awareness about HIV/AIDS. This movement encourages students to adopt healthy lifestyles, foster a sense of social responsibility, and contribute to voluntary blood donation drives. Beyond HIV/AIDS awareness, RRC also focuses on mental health, substance abuse, nutrition, and reproductive and sexual health, equipping young individuals with the necessary knowledge to become peer educators and advocates for positive health behaviors.
            Vision: The Red Ribbon Club envisions instilling a spirit of service in students, promoting healthy lifestyles, and ensuring the availability of safe and sufficient  blood for those in need through regular voluntary blood donation initiatives.
          Mission: RRC aims to cultivate responsible citizenship, enhance professional skills, and foster effective leadership by providing students opportunities to learn from experienced leaders, engage with committed young professionals, and serve the community.
         Goal: To reduce the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), particularly HIV, among young people and to promote a culture of voluntary blood donation.
