Give a Gift That
Truly Matters
This Christmas, you can give a gift of help, hope or healing by selecting one or more gifts from our Christmas Catalogue. From jerrycans of fuel, to care packs and bibles, each gift will make a profound difference in the name of Christ.
You can also give a gift on behalf of someone else. With every purchase, receive a free PDF Christmas card to share with your loved ones, letting them know about the life-changing gift you have donated in their name.
What a wonderful opportunity to give gifts that truly matter this Christmas.
Gift of Fuel
Fuel the mission of MAF to bring help, hope and healing to isolated people across the globe
When the equivalent of one jerrycan (just $50) gets poured into our aircraft, we are fuelled for up to 20 minutes of flying time. For isolated communities, these flights replace days of travel on foot and save many lives.
As Kiwi's we have a long history of generously gifting jerry cans of fuel at Christmas time. Without fuel, none of the work of MAF would be possible. The Papua New Guinea fuel crisis this year showed first-hand what happens when there's no fuel - planes are grounded, people are stuck, and communities go without essential needs.

With your support, MAF can keep providing essential care packs to medevac patients in Timor-Leste. Each pack includes items such as food, water, hygiene items and a Bible, bringing comfort and hope to families, who have, in emergency situations, had to leave without packing.

MAF Kenya partners with the Veterinarians with a Mission Programme (VMP) to support isolated farmers who have no access to vets or who can’t afford treatment to protect their animals. In 2023, MAF enabled VMP to save over 74,000 animals in Kenya.

Gift of Education
Fund a Ticket for a Student on Arnhem Land's "Flying School Bus"

Where most needed
Support MAF's "Where most needed" fund
Help us address urgent and evolving needs across our global programs. Your donation ensures we can respond effectively to the greatest challenges and make a significant impact where it’s needed most.
We believe everyone deserved hope, including the isolated.
Isolation is not often thought of as a problem, but for millions of people across the world it is the barrier to basic medical care, clean water, education and development, disaster response or the opportunity to receive the good news of God’s love. All simply because it’s too dangerous or time-consuming to reach them.
With your help, we are able to overcome these barriers and “fly for life” in its fullest sense.
Gift of Light
Help a Mother Give Birth Safely
MAF Technologies in Papua New Guinea are equipping rural “Mama’s Waiting Huts” with solar lighting, creating safe spaces for pregnant women in remote areas. This lighting ensures care during labour, reduces risks, and stabilises both mother and baby before they return home. Give the gift of light this Christmas.

Just $400 covers the cost of a medevac in Timor-Leste, where MAF is the sole operator flying to most district airstrips and providing essential medevac flights. With our team evacuating a patient every one to two days, the need for support is urgent and ongoing.
