Mercy Ships is a global faith-based charity with offices in 16 nations, providing state-of-the-art care to those in developing nations for the past 40 years. Mercy Ships follows the 2000-year-old model of Jesus, bringing hope and healing to the world's forgotten poor. With the world's largest civilian hospital ship, the Africa Mercy, and a land-based Training and Resource Center in Dakar, Senegal, we bring clean water, sanitation, agriculture programs, healthcare, and a vision for transformation to people living in poverty.
