Mission Doctors Association

Mission Doctors Association MDA provides lifesaving medical care for the poor and training for local healthcare professionals. You are a vital part of this mission of healing.

Mission of Healing

Since 1959, Mission Doctors Association has trained, sent and supported Catholic doctors and their families who come from across the United States to serve people of all faiths in some of the most under-served areas of the world. This mission of healing provides direct patient care and training for local professionals striving toward the goal of sustainable health care. Partner

ship of Hope

The service of mission doctors would not be possible without your prayerful support. Your partnership allows us to respond to the needs of mission hospitals and clinics in Africa and Latin America.

"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." — St. Teresa of Calcutta

As we approach her feast day on September 5, we're reminded that medical mission work isn't about grand gestures — it's about showing up, again and again, with skill and love, for the patient in front of you.

Could your skills be part of that story? 👉 https://www.missiondoctors.org/retreatseminar/

🎉 YOU DID IT! Together, our community met and exceeded the $85,000 Trailblazer Match, the largest in Mission Doctors' history!

Your generosity and prayers are strengthening Catholic mission hospitals as they prepare to care for the vulnerable. As one hospital partner shared: "We believe God hears every prayer, and we are grateful to have such wonderful people standing with us."

Thank you for being part of this mission. 🙏

This month, Pope Leo XIV encourages us to defend everyone’s right to water, so that all may drink “without fear and without inequality."
“May our care for water be a sign of love for the Creator and a commitment to the lives of the poor, educating new generations to value and protect the Earth’s resources.”

Today is the last day of our Match — and we're so close. Just $10,265 stands between us and our full $85,000 goal.

👉 Give before midnight. Double your impact. https://www.missiondoctors.org/donate/

Tomorrow, this match will be gone. But the needs of our mission hospitals — and the families they serve — won't be. As Ebola cases have been confirmed near our partner hospitals in Uganda, your gift today helps them prepare, train, and protect their patients and staff before it arrives.

Every dollar given before midnight is doubled. Will you help us finish strong?

Thanks to your generosity, we've raised over $64,000 toward preparing our Catholic mission hospital partners in Uganda for the Ebola outbreak that has spread from the DRC. Every gift is still being matched dollar-for-dollar — but only through Monday, August 31.

We're so close. Just $20,000 stands between us and a fully matched $85,000 for our hospital partners and Mission Doctors' general fund.

“The primacy of divine love implies that human action is carried out not for self-interest or reward, but as a manifestation of a love that transcends ritual norms and find expression in authentic worship. To serve one’s neighbor is to love God through deeds.”
— Pope Leo XIV

This is the calling our missionary doctors, dentists, and nurse practitioners live out every day — caring for the sick not for recognition, but as an act of love for God.

⏳ Less than a week left to double your impact.

Three Catholic mission hospitals in Uganda are working to stay ahead of the Ebola outbreak that has spread from the Democratic Republic of Congo into Uganda. Supplies, training, and readiness can't wait — and neither can this match.

Thanks to a group of generous donors, every gift is being matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $85,000, through August 31.

Your gift today helps our Uganda hospital partners prepare — and keeps Mission Doctors ready to respond to urgent needs like this one wherever they arise.

Give now and double your impact before time runs out.

"We must seek together how to be a missionary Church, a Church that builds bridges, dialogue, always open to receive... with open arms. Everyone, everyone who needs our charity, our presence, dialogue and love."
— Pope Leo XIV

This is the heart of what our missionaries do every day — showing up with open arms for the people who need care most. 🌍✝️
