Update: Thanks to our incredible community, you went above and beyond on Medical Teams Giving Day! Together, you sent $50,000 in life-saving medical care to our neighbors around the world. We are so grateful for your support.

On September 6, something special is happening at Medical Teams…we’re celebrating our first annual Medical Teams Giving Day! Mark your calendar for a day of celebration and the chance to help send twice the loving, life-saving medical care to our neighbors around the world.

What’s Medical Teams Giving Day?

As we approach our 44th anniversary this fall, we wanted to honor our incredible community of compassionate, big-hearted supporters with a day of celebration. You’re the reason millions of people have had someone to hold their hand and help them through some of their most challenging days.

Because of you, children are treated for malaria. They can get vaccinations and medicine for common, preventable illnesses. When they’re malnourished, they receive emergency nutrition. As a result,  children can be their playful, silly, smiling selves without being hindered by bad health.

Your generosity makes it possible for expecting mothers to get quick access to prenatal care. When they worry something’s wrong with their babies, they know where to go for reassurance and care. Additionally, because of your open hearts, they welcome their babies into the world with the help of skilled birth attendants.

Your support means people within the communities we serve can reach out and care for their neighbors. They find purpose and belonging in programs that help educate and promote health. You stock clinics with the supplies they need to care for the people around them who are caught in some of the most difficult situations imaginable.

For all these reasons — and so many more — we wanted to celebrate our faithful community on Medical Teams Giving Day. As a bonus, one of our generous donors like you pledged a $10,000 match for any donation made on Giving Day! That means your donation is doubled. You will send twice the amount of medical care around the world.

Why should I give?

On Medical Teams Giving Day, your gift will be matched up to $10,000 thanks to one of our incredible donors. You can send TWICE the loving, life-saving medical care to someone in their moment of crisis. But don’t wait! We only have 24 hours to meet our match and help as many people as we can.

You know the need for loving, life-saving medical care has never been greater. Conflict in Ukraine, the wildfire in Maui, and the violence — and now measles outbreak — in Sudan makes this work urgent. You can make sure no one walks this difficult road alone with a gift on Medical Teams Giving Day.

Celebrate Medical Teams Giving Day

We hope you’ll join us to celebrate Medical Teams Giving Day! If you’re on Facebook, follow along on September 6 as we livestream the celebration from our offices in Portland. You’ll hear from our staff about what your donation means to people on the frontlines of care. Also, if you’re one of the first 100 people to donate $50 or more, you’ll receive a special gift.

Save-the-date for Medical Teams Giving Day. Don’t forget to donate on September 6 to help meet the goal of sending life-saving medical care across the world!

Most of all, thank you for coming together to share God’s healing love with our neighbors facing crisis.
