The Bremen district association is one of the largest branches of the German Red Cross (DRK) and currently employs approximately 1,400 people in a wide variety of fields. Guided by the principles of humanity, the association is committed to the life, health, well-being, protection, peaceful coexistence, and dignity of all people.

The BeLeM project (Vocational Life Planning for Young Mothers) is a collaborative project between the German Red Cross's Center for School and Career (zsb) and the General Vocational School (ABS). BeLeM operates directly at the ABS branch in the Neustadt district and supports young mothers without a school-leaving certificate in actively shaping their future while raising their children.

  • Corporate health management (e.g. sports promotion “Hansefit” and employee events)
