Supporting MSF
MSF

To donate online, visit the website for the MSF office in the country nearest to you: MSF Offices

Support from individuals like you is essential to our ability to operate independently, and allows Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontiéres (MSF) to respond at a moment's notice to the most urgent emergencies, often in countries and regions that are otherwise forgotten.

MSF's decision to intervene in any crisis is based solely on our independent assessment of people's needs—not political, economic, or religious interests. Our freedom to act and make decisions independently enables us to respond more quickly and to be the first on the scene to provide emergency medical assistance, even in areas farthest from media attention.

In 2007, 91% of MSF’s income was contributed by more than 3.8 million individuals and other private sources from around the world.

On any one day, more than 27,000 committed individuals representing dozens of nationalities can be found providing assistance to people caught in crises around the world.

They are doctors, nurses, logistics experts, administrators, epidemiologists, laboratory technicians, mental health professionals, and others who work together in accordance with MSF's guiding principles of humanitarian action and medical ethics.

Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) A year after the Israeli military's Operation Cast Lead was launched in the Gaza Strip, civilians are still deeply affected. Here are the stories of some of the patients MSF has treated since the incursion.

Life's lessons are they not. Leave a part of the body(humanity)uncared for it could become sickly and cancerous killing of the entire body. This lesson delivered in word and the physical application of that lesson.

The body of Humanity the Primary Patient/Student with the bodies within(we the Peoples) used as physical examples towards the growth and development of the Primary.

Suffering promotes wisdom and the pleasures promotes foolishness words from a Bible few understand.... See More

To agitate the most calm body or to calm the most agitated within the ability of the Mahdi as he monitors the Primary.

To deliver one global Government, one global Industry, One global Finance, One global Academic, one global military, one global Media, one global Religion and one global bodies of Peoples our task and we have never lost a body yet Peoples. All the Primaries grown are doing well but they too, as individuals were used towards the growth and development of their Primary.

Humanity is our Primary. As we walk through Revelations real time real time we go from the Word to become the Living Word.

One channel with one message delivered globally could do much to calm the agitations of this world Peoples but I cannot do it without your assistance.

Easy now...may sound like Big Brother but my name is Brian.

Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) In 2009, MSF responded to emergencies as diverse as cholera epidemics and malnutrition, crises in international funding for HIV/AIDS treatment, and the lack of medical assistance to newly arrived migrants in Europe. Here is a timeline documenting many of MSF responses over course of the year.

how about cooking some caseroles and pasta etc, and taking them to the nearest abused womens shelter, or the nearest slum boarding house (where up to four families share one house, each renting a room for 300 a wk and all 10-15 of them sharing one kitchen and one bathroom and living off as little as $65 pw, so they'd appreciate it, if they can afford fresh food.

Doctors Without Borders/ Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) Asylum seekers and undocumented migrants are bearing the brunt of increasingly restrictive policies which take a toll on their physical and mental health. Escaping conflict, deprivation or widespread violations of human rights, they endure long and dangerous journeys to Europe. Yet when they finally reach Europe, many ...face prolonged detention, appalling living conditions and a lack of access to healthcare. Others remain trapped outside Europe or are intercepted and sent back to countries where their health and lives may be at risk. On International Migrants Day, MSF urges policy makers across Europe to respect the life and dignity of migrants and asylum seekers and improve their access to basic services, including shelter and health care.

By their suffering in large numbers it draws attention to the global body for an important lesson. Leave a part o the body(of humanity) uncared for it could become sickly and even cancerous killing of THE ENTIRE BODY.

The body of Humanity as a whole is the Primary Patient/Student with the bodies within used as physical examples towards the growth and development of the Primary.

You DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS are part of the following "Borders are like stitches to the body of Humanity that are to be removed over time."= Government=nervous system, Industry=arms and legs, Finance=arteries and veins with money acting as the blood flow/current/currency. Academic=brains with each of us a developing brain cell. Military=immune system, Media=growing ears, eyes and voice of the body. Religion(spirituality +ethics)=heart with the Peoples acting as the skin holding it all together. ... See More

Like a babe about to be born the pain/pressure increases does it not. What you are putting together Doctors with a growing understanding in the physiology, psychology and philosophy of the Primary. Thank you.
