Bring medical vessel to the Philippines

The passion and thrust of YWAM SHIPS PHILIPPINES is to bring health services to the most isolated islands of the Philippines. Our country’s terrain, extensive waterways, infrastructure challenges, and the extreme remoteness of many communities, all pose a significant challenge to effective health service delivery. We have the capacity to overcome isolation and lack of access through the use of ships, allowing local health workers and other volunteer personnel transport to many communities, which currently struggle to receive basic services. Our programs include primary health care, eye health, dentistry, water sanitation, health promotion, continuing professional development programs for rural health professionals, and distribution of essential medical consumables to remote health facilities.
