In the hospitals

We are always looking for heroes who want to come into the hospitals and assist. Volunteers help by transporting medicine, providing donations, and just spending time with patients who often have nobody else visiting.

On the mobile clinic trips

Several times a year a team of doctors, dentists and volunteers sets off to give free medical and dental care in communities a day or more from the nearest hospital. Volunteers serve as support staff: cleaning dental instruments, carrying supplies, keeping children busy, delivering health education, or bringing whatever skill they have, from English workshops to music.

Where the trips have gone →

International volunteers welcome

International volunteers are welcome. People from many countries have joined the hospital visits and the trips over the years, and most of the roles above need no medical background.

What is possible depends on conditions on the ground at any given time. Reach out if you are interested in serving and we will tell you honestly where things stand right now.

Find your way to help

Two quick questions, and we'll tell you what that actually looks like here, and start the conversation for you.

Report a case

Know of someone who is in need of immediate medical assistance and has no other means? Contact us so we can provide assistance.

It helps if you can tell us where they are, what they have been diagnosed with, which hospital or clinic is involved, and how to reach them or someone close to them.

Spread the word

Sharing patients' stories is how Medfund works. It is literally step three of our five. Sending this site to one person who would care costs nothing and might fund someone's treatment.
