This is it, Friend, believe it or not: It is the final week of the year. Starting today, you have one week to make a generous, MATCHED and tax-deductible year-end gift that will help save lives in 2022—and the clock is ticking.

Every minute matters to double your lifesaving impact and bring medical humanitarian aid to those who need it most. Are you ready to maximize your impact?

The urgency of this moment goes beyond the year-end deadline. For Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams and patients living and working in areas threatened by natural disasters, including South Sudan, minutes can be the difference between life and death.

Nyadak Kulang, a young woman who fled her home in South Sudan to escape catastrophic flooding in her community, was seven months pregnant when an MSF medical team reached her.

Floodwater has driven thousands of people like Nyadak from their homes, forcing them to seek shelter on the last pieces of land not underwater. Living conditions on these congested river islands are prime for a medical emergency as people struggle to survive without drinkable water, proper sanitation, shelter, blankets, mosquito nets, and cooking supplies.

Nyadak didn’t have a mosquito net and had no choice but to drink from a contaminated water source. When MSF teams arrived on the island, they diagnosed her with malaria and immediately began a course of specialized treatment.

Please help MSF reach people like Nyadak in places impacted by natural disasters, disease outbreaks, and other emergencies around the world with a MATCHED gift of $50 or more today >>

Our teams mobilized quickly to transport Nyadak to the hospital where MSF works in Old Fangak—a journey that took four hours by speedboat. Thanks to the timely care she received, Nyadak’s condition began to improve.

Friend, MSF teams know minutes matter when it comes to medical emergencies. Your generosity helps them provide lifesaving care at a moment's notice, even in the most hard-to-reach places. The need for medical humanitarian aid has never been greater, so we are asking for your help again today.

When you make a tax-deductible gift of $50 or more before midnight on December 31, it will be MATCHED up to $938,000 by generous donors Worthington & Margaret Mayo-Smith, to send DOUBLE the resources to MSF teams delivering care around the world.

All gifts given, up to $938,000, will be doubled through 11:59 PM EST on 12/31. Every dollar you give will be matched with $1. Gifts received after the match has been met will not be matched but will be used where needed most.
