Two Ships. Twice the Transformations.
In 2021, Mercy Ships will launch our newest ship, the Global Mercy, to join our current ship, the Africa Mercy, in our life-changing mission. This will double our ability to provide free surgeries and increase our capacity to train local doctors in the communities we serve.

It Starts with a Location
Because 50% of the world’s population lives near a coast, we can provide more surgeries for more people with our floating hospitals.

We're Built on Efficiency
In regions where resources are scarce, a state-of-the-art hospital ship is the most efficient way to deliver free surgeries.

We Create Lasting Change
Our programs include training local professionals, providing new medical tools and resources, renovating facilities, and more.

Lives Changed
Unleashed Potential
Aliou was just 3 years old when his blanket ignited while sitting around a fire—severely burning his upper body. As his burns healed, his arm contracted and became immobile. Surgery was his only option, but his family could never afford it.
Our Volunteers are an Integral Part of Our Mission
Our selfless crew members volunteer their time and talent and pay their own expenses to deliver the highest quality medical care to those in desperate need. Over 1,300 people volunteer to be an integral part of the Mercy Ships crew every year.
