Registration for the 7 September parade is now closed. This notice is kept as a record of the branch's participation.
Participants representing the Brazilian Red Cross — Rio de Janeiro Branch in the 7 September civic parade had to confirm their attendance through the official form.
The Brazilian Red Cross — Rio de Janeiro Branch prepared to take part in the celebrations of 7 September, the date that marks Brazil's Independence and brings together civil and military institutions in a range of commemorative activities.
To organise the branch's participation in the 7 September Civic Parade, official registration was opened for the volunteers and team members who would be present representing the Red Cross.
Confirming in advance was essential for planning the marching groups, accrediting participants, organising the teams and sharing the instructions for the day of the parade.
Who had to fill in the form
Registration was required of all volunteers and team members of the Brazilian Red Cross — Rio de Janeiro Branch intending to take part officially in the parade.
Even those who had already expressed interest had to fill it in, so that the organisers could work with an up-to-date list of participants.
Why registration was needed
Taking part in an event of this size involves a series of preparations. With the participants' details, the branch could organise:
- the formation and distribution of the marching groups;
- the accreditation of volunteers;
- the identification and organisation of the teams;
- the instructions on where to assemble;
- times and meeting points;
- the operational briefing for the parade.
That is why filling in the form was mandatory for everyone marching.
Serving with love, marching with pride
The Red Cross's presence at the 7 September parade also represents the work carried out every day by volunteers and professionals committed to protecting life, providing humanitarian assistance and caring for communities.
Each volunteer present carries the principles and the history of an organisation dedicated to being close to people when they need it most.
Serving with love, marching with pride.
