About this organization
Mission
MBF, the Medical Benevolence Foundation, is a non-denominational Christian non-profit that focuses on healthcare and spreading the gospel of Christ in developing countries around the world. MBF builds healthcare capabilities for the long-run through country-wide networks of nursing schools, hospitals, and clinics that are a ministry outreach of the local church in each country. Through MBF's 57 year history, lives in 34 countries have been transformed. Today, MBF is a vehicle to help bring hope and healing to the less advantaged in Haiti, Malawi, Kenya and DR Congo.
About
Medical supplies and equipment in every developing country, access to up-to-date, medical equipment and lifesaving medicines is extremely limited. At the same time, millions of dollars' worth of medical equipment and pharmaceuticals are discarded by hospitals and companies every year in the U.S. Working with a number of U.S. based partners, MBF ships refurbished and new equipment as well as much needed medicines and supplies, to international hospital partners in Kenya, Malawi, DR Congo and Haiti. Working operating room lights and mobile ultrasounds for example, enable the doctors and nurses to treat their patients safely and effectively. Beds and exam tables improve levels of patient care. Sterile supplies reduce the chance for infection. Medicines reduce pain and suffering.
