The Medical Benevolence Foundation (MBF) helps people in developing countries get the medical care they need. In these countries, local church-led ministries provide 30% - 50% of medical care. They provide care for all, including for those who cannot pay. Most of the patients are women and children from rural areas. These ministries are often their only accessible medical care. Rural communities in these countries are very poor. Families farm and fish but often have no money for medical care. The medical facilities and equipment are decades behind first-world standards. The number of trained medical professionals is shockingly low for the size of the population. We work to reduce the gap between the standard of medical care in these communities and that in the US. Our mission is to provide physical and spiritual healing to the poor through the local church. We help the church’s medical ministries so they, in turn, can help their communities. These ministries include medical services, hospitals, clinics and nursing schools. Medical ministries create jobs. They make medical care available to some of the least- resourced places in the world. They strengthen the position of the local church as a pillar of support in the community. Donations to MBF help offset medical costs for the poor, modernize facilities and equipment, and provide supplies and medicines. Funds also help train local doctors and nurses. Spiritual ministry training is provided free for medical staff. MBF is currently working with ministries in Haiti, Kenya, Malawi and DR Congo. Our vision is to see a country-wide Christian Medical Network in each country. The network will reduce costs while improving the quality of care for patients. The first Christian Medical Network is underway in Malawi.
