Medical Relief and Medical Missions

Global First Responder is a nonprofit conducting relief trips worldwide. We focus on healthcare delivery, health education, community development projects, and disaster relief. We welcome volunteers of all skill-sets. More than just medical professionals, our teams are composed of individuals from all walks of life. GFR has worked in a large number of developing countries to provide sustainable infrastructure and healthcare solutions.

To date, Global First Responder has worked in 14 countries around the world in cooperation with multiple non-government relief organizations.

Global First Responder (GFR) is a secular, nonprofit, international medical relief organization founded by Dr. Adam Beckett in 2011. 

After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti left emergency response organizations in disarray, Dr. Beckett recognized the need for a centralized network of relief agencies and their associated volunteers. He began by developing a database and website to meet this need while establishing GFR: a nimble, non-government organization capable of coordinating teams of experts and professionals, deployed to serve needed capacities on high-impact, short-term trips to regions in need.

 

100% of donations are utilized to purchase medical equipment, medication, and building

supplies as well as support our operations.
