text: (Faroese below) With the effort of volunteers, the Faroe Islands Red Cross works towards decreasing human distress, hardship, and discrimination. We help in daily life and when disaster strikes, both internationally and here in the Faroes. With our more than 300 volunteers, we provide emergency services and courses, we have second-hand clothes and book shops and social services for the elderly and lonely, free food and clothes provisions for those in need, and integration events, currently the Intercultural Family Retreat and Red Cross Buddies.

text: A goal of the Faroe Islands Red Cross is to encourage friendship and intercultural understanding amongst people. In 2016, the Red Cross started the recurrent event Intertwining, also called Sambinding, where immigrants and native Faroese got the chance to meet. In 2018, the Red Cross expanded its initiatives for integration by hosting the first Intercultural Family Retreat in the Faroes. The retreat has been an annual event ever since, except 2020 and 2021 because of Covid-19. In 2021, the Red Cross started a new initiative, where families or individuals with an immigrant background get the chance to become friends with a local volunteer or volunteer family. To begin with, the initiative was called Family Network, until 2022, when the name was replaced by Red Cross Buddies.
