Mercy Ships is a global charity that operates hospital ships to provide free, life-changing medical care to people in developing countries that can’t get that access in their own regions. Staffed by volunteer professionals, the ships deliver surgeries, dental care and medical training, primarily in Africa, aiming to improve healthcare infrastructure and provide critical services to underserved communities.

Mercy Ships is Seawork’s official charity partner, and they spoke to Maritime Journal about the amazing work they do.
