Médecins Sans Frontières, founded in 1971, intervenes in humanitarian emergencies with several medical activities: running hospitals, clinics and nutrition centres, performing war and routine surgery, fighting epidemics, and providing psychological support to victims of trauma and war.

MSF’s actions are first and foremost medical. They provide high-quality care to all patients, without taking sides in armed conflicts and abstaining from supporting the goals of the parties to the conflict. They work in more than 70 countries around the world in emergency settings such as conflicts, epidemics, natural disasters, and fleeing populations. The grant from IMPact Foundation was earmarked to cover part of Médecins Sans Frontières’ operating expenses.

*In 2019 and 2020, the grant was disbursed through the SGR.
