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 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 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.
The good fight
Among the many places we fly, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) ranks as the most ravaged of impoverished countries.
Millions of displaced Congolese have been driven from their homes by murderous attacks – losing friends and family in the desperate panic to escape.
And the deadly Ebola virus has returned with a vengeance to communities still reeling from the last epidemic.
Yet the MAF family is part of some amazing stories that show miracles still happen when we join together in faithful partnership to fight the good fight.
