Mercy Ships is the world’s leading non-governmental ship-based medical organization.
Our goal is to transform the lives of the world’s forgotten poor – one by one. Our hospital ships and land-based teams provide primary medical care, relief aid and community support to the most impoverished people on earth, free of charge.
The Africa Mercy, the world’s largest charity hospital ship, is crewed by 450 volunteers from around the world, delivering medical excellence and developmental programs with integrity and compassion.

Mercy Ships ser
ves those who are most in need of health care and relief aid in the world’s poorest countries. Lack of clean water is one of the most urgent problems facing the developing world today. Thousands of children die annually from easily-correctable birth defects such as cleft palates and lips. Those who survive become outcasts from society, often rejected by their parents and communities and denied even basic schooling. Half of the world’s estimated 40 million blind people could see following a one-hour operation.
