Who We Are

We are CHRISTIANS, committed to modeling the compassion of Jesus Christ by serving the poor, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, race or religion.

"MAP's worldwide ministry of Christian compassion fulfills a God-given responsibility which you and I share -- that of demonstrating the love of Christ."
Dr. Billy Graham

We are a 45-year-old RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT organization that promotes the total health of people living in the world's poorest communities by partnering in community health development, disease prevention and eradication, relief and rehabilitation and global health advocacy.

"The Virunga Hospital has played a very important role in caring for the war wounded in Goma (Zaire), thanks to your moral, material and financial support."
Dr. Jo Lusi, Director, Virunga Hospital

We are a HEALTH organization, offering services that promote total health -- the ability of people, families and communities to work together to promote, in a sustainable way, their physical, emotional, social, economic, environmental and spiritual well-being.

"You have been entrusted with the monumental responsibility of addressing our poorest neighbors' health care concerns. We will keep you in our prayers as you continue MAP's ministry of providing medical assistance to those in need."
President Jimmy Carter

We are GLOBAL, working in some 100 countries with offices on three continents and leadership that reflects the populations we serve.

"On behalf of Ukrainian people and physicians we thank you for your generosity and kindness. May God help you in all your deeds on behalf of suffering people throughout the world."
Yevgeny S. Korolenko, Minister of Health of Ukraine

We are PARTNERS, committed to supporting and encouraging the work of others.

"MAP has enabled us to participate with our own voice, to let our feelings be known and to know what is going on in other countries."
Teresa Simbana, Indigenous Federation of Ecuador

We are ACCOUNTABLE, ensuring appropriate use of funds and effectiveness of programs as members of the Evangelical Council of Financial Accountability, InterAction and AERDO.

"In the New Testament, Luke instructs us that to whom much is given, much will be expected. As Christians, we at MAP International hold this as truth. We know that God has given to us a dedicated staff, loyal supporters and materials resources that are needed around the world. We know, too, that much is expected of us."
Michael J. Nyenhuis,
Interim President, MAP International

We are RESPECTED, with more than 45 years of experience bringing health and hope to a hurting world.

"World Vision has had the privilege to partner with MAP on many occasions. ... We look forward to a continued partnership as together we serve our Lord."
Richard Sterns, President
