We go the extra mile to help people in need, wherever they are.

We go where others don't to reach people impacted by emergencies and crises so they can live in dignity, free from human suffering, and with hope for a better future. 



Since 1989, Medair has provided life-saving humanitarian assistance to more than 50 million people in 43 crisis-affected countries. When emergencies happen, we move fast to bring relief then stay to help communities recover – working side-by-side with people to find the solutions that are best for them.

Healthcare and nutrition services for communities in DR Congo

Recurring conflict in eastern DR Congo is displacing entire communities and depriving them of essential healthcare and nutrition services. Our comprehensive, multi-prong project provides a solution to this critical gap. Your partnership can help build new health facilities; improve water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services at existing healthcare facilities; and establish community gardens to combat child malnutrition.

Building communities’ resilience in South Sudan

Prolonged conflict, rapid displacement, and recurring climate shocks have left communities in South Sudan unable to access their most basic needs for food, shelter, and water. That’s why our Emergency Response Team is committed to providing urgent health and nutrition assistance that prevent disease outbreaks and treat acute malnutrition, and to improving people’s access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene solutions.
