Since 1963, The Medical Benevolence Foundation (MBF) has worked to provide hope and healing to those most in need. Working with our international church partners, MBF supports healing ministries in more than 100 hospitals and clinics throughout the world. Our work includes:
 |
Funding MBF Provides crucial funds needed to give medical care to the needy. We also help fund medical mission workers and help our church partners build, maintain, and operate hospitals in some of the world’s most impoverished nations and communities. Through your gifts, MBF contributes to the fight against diseases of poverty, including HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and malnutrition. |
 |
Medical Supplies MBF works with U.S. partners to fill cargo containers with surplus donations of medical supplies and equipment, which are then sent to a wide variety of grateful facilities around the world. MBF works hard to insure these supplies arrive in safe hands and are put to good use to help those in need. |
 |
Community Development MBF goes even further than immediate healing needs by working toward lasting changes that effect whole communities. This includes community health programs, helping to train indigenous healthcare workers and personnel, education programs on disease prevention and nutrition, and more. |
 |
Awareness Domestically MBF works to inform donors of the great needs around the world and how, together, we can all be a part of this exciting work. MBF reports back the mission impact of your gifts, on lives saved and transformed, and progress made through these ministries in many places. |
Medical Benevolence Foundation staff and trustees share a commitment to work to improve access to skilled medical care for people in developing countries where needs are the greatest.

Our Partners
Medical Benevolence Foundation (MBF) maintains a working relationship with several other organizations, including the following:
|
Presbyterian Church (USA) MBF is a validated support organization of PC(USA). |
International Health & Development
International Health & Development (IHD), a program office of World Mission, works with church partners overseas, with mission co-workers, and with Presbyterians in the U.S. to address the underlying causes of disease, care for the sick, and alleviate conditions that perpetuate poverty. IHD helps church partners build their capacity to break the cycle of disease and poverty in their communities, by facilitating and supporting efforts that are holistic, have long-term impact, and focus on the particular needs of women and children. MBF coordinates with IHM on areas of need in the developing world.
Brother’s Brother
Brother’s Brother Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit international charity that collects and distributes donated medical supplies and equipment around the world. MBF works with Brother’s Brother to ship medical supplies and equipment to overseas partner institutions. Click here to find out how to donate supplies.
Project C.U.R.E.
This is another organization with which MBF works to ship medical supplies and equipment overseas. Click here to learn how to donate medical supplies and/or volunteer.
Fellowship of Presbyterians – Evangelical Covenant Order of Presbyterians
The Fellowship is an “umbrella organization” that includes members of the PC(USA), members of ECO, and brothers and sisters in Christ beyond these two denominations.
Hospitals, Clinics, and Missionaries
These institutions and individuals in the field are the ones doing the hands-on work of healing and helping others. MBF works to give support, supplies, and funds to help them do what they do best.
Individual Churches
Individual churches across the United States and elsewhere are an essential part of MBF's work. They help to get the word out to their congregations about how they can best help those in need.
