Medicins Sans Frontieres

That's right... give kindly and be one that actually makes a difference in the world we live in!

I have been a field partner with MSF for a year now, and only recently learnt about what I have been supporting. Anyways, I was invited to a MSF function at the Seymore Theatre last Tuesday night and mingled with different people from all walks of life. It actually made me feel good about myself, that I am apart of this organisation. And believe me its not because of the free flowing alcohol that was being served.

Commonly known as Doctors Without Borders, teams are currently in 70 countries, working with more than 15,000 locally recruited staff in conditions that are always challenging, sometimes dangerous.

We provide relief after natural disasters such as floods or earthquakes. We help casualties of war. We run emergency feeding centres during famines. We fight disease and organise mass vaccination programmes to prevent epidemics spreading. We are also involved in long-term health projects such as training local medical staff and putting in place safe drinking water and sanitation facilities.
