The Red Cross of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is the Red Cross member organization for the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[1] It was admitted to the IFRC in 1963. An unrelated earlier Red Cross society had existed in the Congo Free State under King Leopold II of Belgium's rule, and disbanded in 1909.[2]
