Testimony

MAGNA was founded not only to provide assistance in disasters and conflicts, but also to talk about what we see. We believe that silence can kill. We hope that by revealing injustice we can help put an end to it.

All MAGNA latest news from the field

Direct, transparent and professional medical assistance

How do we do it?

We’re right there

We’re committed to ensuring our assistance reaches those for whom it was intended. We operate directly on site, and our staff have access to hospitals and crisis areas to assess independently what specific assistance is needed.

Transparency

Your donations pay for hundreds of thousands of consultations, treatments, and vaccinations every year. We respond effectively - 95% of your donations are spent directly on treating children in MAGNA hospitals.

Our help is direct

Our projects are run by us, without intermediaries. We manage the aid personally, and are able to respond rapidly to emergencies. Our staff and other professionals are right in the field.

Patient first

Our main priority is to provide medical assistance to victims of epidemics, conflicts, and natural disasters. We also develop innovative health projects helping people. Patient is always first.

Testimony

The Forgotten Voices

If we witness extreme violence against individuals or groups, we talk about it publicly. What guides this decision is always our mission: to alleviate suffering, protect life, and honour fundamental human rights.

Ange in Congo

At his age, Ange should weigh 7 kilograms, but his weight is only half that. Following treatment at the MAGNA hospital and thanks to a nutritious therapeutic diet, he’s turned into a healthy boy within 6 weeks.

Sok and Kin in Cambodia

Sok joined the MAGNA HIV program in Cambodia, and soon her son Kin was born. Today he’s 3 months old and healthy. We are able to stop HIV transmission from mother to child in 98% of all cases.

Manisha in Nepal

She was born a few days after the earthquake in Nepal in a MAGNA tent. Her mother decided to give her daughter a name after MAGNA's nurse Manish who helped the girl come into the world.
