We Save Lives and Relieve Suffering. You Can Help.

Typhoon Mangkhut, the strongest storm so far worldwide in 2018, recently slammed into northeast Luzon—the Philippines’ largest and most populated island—reportedly producing waves reaching almost 30 feet high, causing excessive flooding, resulting in more than 40 landslides, killing scores of people and displacing hundreds of thousands more.

Because helping MILLIONS starts with training ONE, International Medical Corps stays long after the news headlines fade—helping communities to recover and rebuild by strengthening the capacity of local healthcare workers to serve their own people.

In Somalia, South Sudan, Nigeria, Yemen and Ethiopia, millions of people are at risk of starvation. In these countries, drought, increasing conflict and displacement have created a humanitarian crisis on a scale not seen in decades.

Half of Syria’s population has been uprooted from their homes, fueling the largest displacement crisis since World War II. We reach people where they are, providing lifesaving healthcare, training and other services.

We provide midwifery training so that more moms and babies can have healthy pregnancies—and safe deliveries.

Our staff numbers more than 7,000 worldwide, with 95% recruited locally. Because our approach encompasses relief, recovery and resilience, training is an essential and consistent part of everything we do. Our strategy ensures that the knowledge required to prepare for future emergencies remains anchored in the communities we serve.

Training builds knowledge, instills confidence and fosters self-reliance.

We provided more than 4.8 million medical consultations, as well as specialized treatment such as nutrition, mental health and psychosocial support, and other services.

Proper hygiene is a key ingredient to good health. We teach people how to prevent disease through good hygiene, while helping provide access to safe, sanitary conditions and clean water.
