Mission

The mission of Medical Teams International is to demonstrate the love of Christ to people affected by disaster, conflict and poverty around the world. We are a Christian global health organization based in Portland, Oregon. We send teams of volunteer health professionals to carry out disaster relief, long-term development and community health programs in collaboration with local partners. We also ship millions in humanitarian aid to more than 70 countries each year. By constructing lasting partnerships with grassroots organizations worldwide, we fit seamlessly into local cultural contexts, which avoids duplication of effort and allows us the furthest reach to the poor.
