about
MAF Flying for Life
We believe every community, however remote,
should have the essentials for life.
OUR VISION
‘To see isolated people changed by the love of Christ.’
Serving the isolated
Imagine if your community had no roads and little access to the outside world.
How would you or your family reach a doctor if you were sick or injured? How would you receive an education or access job opportunities?
This is the reality for millions of people.
Jungles, mountains, swamps, insecurity and dilapidated infrastructure are all barriers to receiving physical and spiritual care and a hope for the future.
Why we fly
We are Mission Aviation Fellowship – or MAF – a Christian mission organisation that uses planes to overcome these barriers.
Our pilots and personnel deliver relief workers, doctors, pastors, school books, food, medicines – everything that can only be safely and speedily transported by air.
Our supporters give and pray to make this all possible.
With an MAF plane taking off or landing every six minutes, the need is huge. Will you partner with us?
What we do
Working in partnership with hundreds of other Christian and relief organisations,
MAF enables practical help, physical healing and spiritual hope to be delivered
to some of the world’s most remote and inaccessible communities
MAF flies to more destinations than the six largest airlines in the world combined.
Practical help
Inaccessible terrain
Flying onto desert and jungle airstrips, lakes and rivers, tracks and roads, MAF’s light aircraft and our pilots go the extra miles to provide a lifeline.
Disaster relief
Cyclones, typhoons and earthquakes can devastate the world’s poorest communities in climate-vulnerable areas like the Philippines, Bangladesh and parts of Brazil. Surveying the damage from the air is the first step in getting relief where it is needed and MAF can be operational within hours, getting precious people and supplies where they are most needed so the rebuilding can begin.
