Disaster relief

The barriers created by natural disasters are overcome by MAF

When relief organizations such as World Vision, Samaritan’s Purse, and Compassion International respond to disasters or work in areas of drought, poverty, and oppression, they often depend on MAF. An indispensable partner in their efforts to alleviate suffering, MAF transports food, medicines, and supplies for relief programs.

In the wake of natural disasters and civil wars, MAF airplanes can take off and land on short, crude airstrips to reach those in greatest need.

During crises, MAF services provide reliable, timely delivery of emergency supplies and personnel. Food arrives in time to alleviate hunger, medicines and emergency medical evacuations save lives, and goods and supplies improve living conditions.

A MAF plane is a welcome sight to people who have lost so much.

MAF communications further facilitate relief programs. Agency and relief efforts are more easily coordinated through MAF technology networks, even when an entire nation has lost electrical power.
