About Mercy Ships Switzerland

Mercy Ships, hospital ships to provide surgical care

5 billion people worldwide do not have adequate access to surgical interventions.

Mercy Ships uses hospital ships to deliver free, world-class healthcare services, capacity building, and sustainable development to those with little access in the developing world. Every year, Mercy Ships provides more than 2'000 free surgical interventions and 8'000 dental treatments to those without access in developing countries. Mercy Ships also works with host nations to help fill the gaps in healthcare systems through training opportunities and infrastructure projects.

Founded in Lausanne (Switzerland) in 1978 by Don and Deyon Stephens, Mercy Ships has worked in more than 55 developing countries, providing services valued at more than CHF1.7 billion and provided over 100'000 surgical procedures.

Our ships are crewed by volunteers from over 50 nations, with an average of over 2'000 volunteers each year. Professionals including surgeons, dentists, nurses, healthcare trainers, teachers, cooks, seamen, engineers, and agriculturalists donate their time and skills.

With 16 national offices and an Africa Bureau, Mercy Ships seeks to transform individuals and serve nations. For more information click on www.mercyships.ch.
