About the Mercy Ship:
Mercy Ships is a global charity that has operated hospital ships in developing nations since 1978. Mercy Ships brings hope and healing to the forgotten poor by mobilizing people and resources worldwide, and serving all people without regard for race, gender, or religion. Our Crew of both professional medical and non-medical volunteers have chosen a very powerful way to share their blessings. Not everyone can give of themselves as volunteers, but your support for our cause can make a difference in the lives of the forgotten poor. Short-term volunteers can participate from two weeks to a year with Mercy Ships, while others may choose to serve in a longer capacity. The ability to utilize professional volunteers as Crew allows Mercy Ships to maximize our donor support and serve those who need help the most.
