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 use aviation and technology, because in many places those are the only ways to reach isolated people in need.
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 people on the ground.
How we help
Watch video
For 75 years, MAF has been flying light aircraft over jungles, mountains, swamps and deserts. We enable more than 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.
Special people
The MAF family is a network of special people – staff, supporters, partners and beneficiaries
Together, we’ve been fighting poverty, injustice, discrimination and brutality worldwide with the love of God since 1945.
To do this we need to inspire, train, equip and pray for pilots to fly millions of miles each year.
We must keep airborne through this pandemic because men, women and children depend on us every day.
And because this will not end when coronavirus is but a memory.
