Philippines (Mindanao) · 2027
Initial talks with potential partner hospitals took place in October 2025; a regular mission is planned for 2027.
Current status
After a severe earthquake in the partner region, the organization provided €2,500 in emergency support through local contacts in October 2025. That same month, Christian Motsch held initial talks with potential partner hospitals on site.
Next step
The team is due to operate in Cagayan de Oro on Mindanao in spring 2027 — the organization's next mission to the Philippines. Around €60,000 is needed for supplies, medication, and local training; team members cover their own flights and vacation time. Planning is under way; more information will follow here.
The supplies are on their way: on 10 October 2026, members from Saarland and Fulda packed around 50 boxes of instruments and consumables that are being shipped ahead. The packing day in pictures.

A donation, a membership, or your time: every contribution becomes surgery, safe anesthesia, and training on the ground.
