Medicine. Human Rights. Equality.
Founded in 1994, EMERGENCY has worked in 21 different countries and currently operates in Afghanistan, Eritrea, Iraq, Italy, Palestine, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Uganda and Ukraine.
EMERGENCY provides free, high-quality care to people affected by conflict and poverty.
We do this in a sustainable way: building healthcare facilities, training local personnel, and conducting search and rescue missions in the Mediterranean Sea.
EMERGENCY USA is an affiliate of EMERGENCY that supports the organization through advocacy, fundraising and recruitment of medical staff.
Our Upcoming Events
Join EMERGENCY USA on May 12 at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. for a dynamic conversation including frontline perspectives on leadership, trauma care, and health system resilience.
