Rohingya Response: Clinic life

Join online

The most impactful emergency response doesn't start and stop with headlines. At MSF, we need to be ready to act at a moment’s notice when crises emerge and to continue supporting communities long after global attention fades. Your ongoing support can help power both —going where the needs are greatest.

Why become a Lifeline Partner?

Help us prepare for emergencies so we can respond faster.

At MSF, we know that minutes matter. That’s why we have pre-packaged kits ready to be shipped to our projects within hours of a crisis emerging. Ongoing support helps fund this kind of preparation and more.

Ensure we can support long-term health needs after headlines fade.

Emergencies don’t go away after headlines fade. Neither do our MSF teams. Your gift fuels the resources needed to support our projects with life-saving medical care months—sometimes years—after the initial emergency.

Fund our work in communities where others can’t or won’t.

As a recurring donor, your gift is unrestricted and goes wherever the needs are greatest. This empowers our work in projects or emergencies that may not get as much global attention—often where other humanitarian actors can’t or won’t go.
