MedSend enables highly qualified and dedicated healthcare professionals to serve spiritually and physically needy people around the world in the name of Christ. We do this by making their monthly educational loan payments while they serve. Without MedSend, these healthcare professionals would need to spend years working in the U.S. to pay off their educational debt before going and being able to answer God’s call to serve – and many would never make it to the mission field at all. Since being founded in 1992, MedSend has approved educational loan repayment grants to over 500 healthcare professionals serving around the world. They serve in areas of deep physical and spiritual need, many of them in areas of the world untouched by the gospel. As healthcare providers, some are welcomed in areas that are closed to evangelism. Grant recipients staff and run mission hospitals and rural clinics, which often involves training and mentoring Christian nationals as caregivers.
