We are
flying for life
What's new with MAF?
Our Vision
At MAF, we believe nothing should stop people from receiving the love of God and the essentials of life – no matter how remote they are. Our vision is to see 'isolated people physically and spiritually transformed in Christ's name.' We believe that everyone deserves a chance to experience the love of Jesus Christ. We use aviation and technology, because in many places those are the only ways to reach isolated people with Christ’s love.
The Need
In today's 'connected world', the irony is that never have so many people been so isolated. Many remote communities have never heard the Gospel and are living in spiritual darkness.
If a person has a medical emergency and the nearest hospital is a few days walk or an uncomfortable drive on rough roads, their prognosis is poor.
When natural disasters, conflict or famine strike hard-to-reach places, an aircraft may be the only safe way to reach the affected areas.
How we help
Watch video
For over 70 years, MAF has been flying light aircraft over jungles, mountains, swamps and deserts. We enable over 2,000 aid, development and mission organisations to bring medical care, emergency relief, long-term development and Christian hope to thousands of communities.
Every four minutes an MAF plane is taking off or landing somewhere in the world to help eliminate the barriers to physical and spiritual transformation. Enabling partners is at the core of what we do and you can help make it possible.
We can't plan for an emergency. But you can make us ready for one.
An MAF flight often means life or death. And every flight happens because a pilot, ground staff, local communities and MAF supporters all work together.
Paul Woodington’s emergency flight to save an 18-year-old boy with life-threatening burns called upon all his faith, skill and experience.
It’s this level of professionalism under severe pressure has seen the number of partners organisations we fly grow to more than 2,000.
Please say a prayer today for our work in 27 countries and make a gift that will keep pilots like Paul ever vigilant for when their next call comes – whether planned or emergency.
