Flying a lifeline to the world's most isolated communities.

This Father's Day, give the gift of fuel!

When a jerrycan of fuel is poured into a MAF plane, a flight replacing days of travel on foot can take off. Flights that have brought essential care to isolated people, and have saved many lives.

Plus, receive a jerrycan card for your dad, grandad or other father figure to let them know about the gift you have given on their behalf!

Millions of people cannot access medical care, clean water, education, disaster relief and other basic needs simply because it is too dangerous or time-consuming to reach them.

In 1945, MAF started as the dream of two Kiwis. Today, Mission Aviation Fellowship is the world’s largest humanitarian air operator. For over 80 years, we have been flying light aircraft over jungles, mountains, deserts and hostile areas to bring help, hope, and healing to the world’s most isolated people. We are flying for life.

Latest issue of MAF's 'Flying for Life' magazine is out now!

Nyalam Gets a Second Chance at Life

Thanks to an MAF flight and Medair intervention, a young girl’s critical case of malaria and malnourishment was treated after her family was displaced due to severe conflict in South Sudan.

Osam's Multi-Stage Medevac Transcends Borders

When Osam Osman Idriss Sulieman developed serious heart problems, he urgently needed specialised medical care. But there was a major problem: He was working in a troubled part of Sudan, and the nearest suitable care was in Nairobi, Kenya.

'Life is hard...I don't have clothes or food'

Bishop Lucy has been in ministry for about 30 years and she is based in the Liberian capital Monrovia – but she would struggle to reach communities across the country without MAF flights. In a recent flight, MAF brought Bishop Lucy back from Harper to the capital after a week of intensive training - teaching women about the Bible.
