Founding Philosophy
We
are extremely fortunate to live in a prosperous country
where opportunities are endless. Such good fortune is
not distributed equally around the world. One does not
have to look far to be reminded of this fact on a daily
basis.
Citizens in countries affected by conflict, hunger,
disease and lack of access to medical care suffer in the
millions. In most instances their government cannot
provide the elements needed to meet their needs, nor can
international relief agencies. The private sector,
whether faith-based or secular can play a crucial role
in “filling the gap” which remains.
We
believe all people are created equal and those of us
blessed with particular skills and resources have a
responsibility and obligation to use them in helping
individuals in need. We do not discriminate based on
race, religion, sex nor national origin.
Organization Goals
Increase public awareness of inequality in health care
delivery and services worldwide.
Provide a portal through which individuals,
corporations, community and national organizations may
make tax deductible charitable contributions supporting
the delivery of medical care and services to underserved
areas of the world.
Provide medical and surgical care to underserved areas
with quality of that found in industrialized countries
worldwide.
Mitigate the personal financial burden of volunteers
participating in medical missions through grants, fund
matching programs and being a vessel through which the
volunteer may make a charitable contribution on one’s
own behalf.
Develop associations with other service organizations,
both secular and non secular, bringing medical services
to underserved areas of the world.
