History

We were founded in 2003 to provide healthcare to vulnerable people of all faiths and none.

Release International, which serves persecuted Christians, had been funding medical treatment for victims of ethno-religious violence in Nigeria. But their constitution only allowed them to support Christians, even though many others urgently needed help.

That’s why MAI was created – to form a new charity dedicated to helping local Christians provide healthcare for people in desperate circumstances, regardless of race, age, class or creed.
