Every day, MSF provides life-saving care to people whose lives are threatened by wars and conflicts, natural disasters, deadly disease outbreaks and chronic hunger. 

 

But we can’t do it without you. Please donate now.

 


In DRC and Uganda, a deadly new outbreak of Ebola disease has spread rapidly through communities already suffering overlapping crises of conflict, deprivation and disease. In Sudan, Ukraine, Gaza and across the Middle East, conflict has killed and injured thousands – plunging millions into crisis. 

But right now, you can help Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders, reach these communities with the medical and humanitarian support they need. 

Your regular support will provide urgent medical care on the frontlines of wars, epidemics and natural disasters, including surgical care and maternity services, hospital and clinic management, and easing malnutrition during acute hunger crises.


THE CRISIS

Why now?

Right now, the world is witnessing an upsurge in conflict not seen since World War II, while hunger and deadly disease outbreaks like Ebola threaten to overwhelm struggling healthcare systems. Amidst these overlapping crises, Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) projects need funding for staff and supplies to save more lives, more than ever.

What is MSF doing?

In DRC, MSF teams are responding to a rapidly growing outbreak of Ebola disease, setting up clinics and treatment centres, while trying to meet the existing needs of the people on thye ground. In Gaza, in Lebanon and across the Middle East, as hospitals shake from airstrikes and staff and patients live under siege, we work to triage and treat the severely wounded. In the vast crisis that has gripped Sudan, we are providing medical care and have cared for survivors who fled to Chad from horrific violence.

Why MSF? 

MSF has been working in conflicts and crises since our founding in 1971. From paediatric nurses to off-road drivers, our experienced staff are responding to complex and fast-moving humanitarian emergencies across more than 70 countries, including high-insecurity environments. We think fast, act fast and adapt to save lives.
