Flying for Life
How MAF Partners with Medical Teams to Save Lives
This is just one example of how MAF’s aviation services make critical healthcare accessible where it’s needed most.
Every day, MAF works alongside medical teams worldwide to bring life-saving care to those in remote communities. When Angeline in Madagascar suffered pregnancy complications, MAF and its partners acted swiftly—clearing an airstrip, coordinating a flight, and ensuring she reached the hospital in time for urgent surgery. A three-day overland journey was reduced to under an hour, giving Angeline the best chance of survival.
MAF Returns to Bougainville
Restoring Hope and Vital Services
Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) is making a long-awaited return to Bougainville, with strong government support and a vision to restore essential services to isolated communities. For many, this marks more than just the re-establishment of aviation and technology programs—it’s the revival of a valued partnership that once brought hope, connection, and life-changing support.
Travel in and out of Bougainville remains a major challenge. A journey by road and sea from Lae to the region takes nearly a week—one day by road and four days by sea. In contrast, an aircraft can make the trip in just three hours. MAF’s return will help overcome these barriers, providing faster and more reliable access to critical services.
With backing from the Autonomous Bougainville Government and local leaders, MAF is laying the groundwork to serve again, starting with MAF Technologies and plans for future aviation operations.
Thank You for Making Firsts Possible
Because of your generosity, life-changing firsts are happening in isolated communities around the world. From the first plane landing in Sikoi to the first high school graduates in Mougulu, your support is making a lasting impact. Thank you for partnering with MAF to bring help, hope, and healing to those who need it most.
If you haven’t had a chance to give yet, there’s still time to help make more firsts happen. Your gift can bring transformation to the most isolated people on earth.
