Target demographics: One-third of our planet's inhabitants, or two billion people, are in dire need of medical care - and with an exploding population a new way is needed. Children are the worst affected.

Direct beneficiaries per year: In the past, we have provided eye surgeries to app. 300 per year, and other surgical treatments as Cleft Pallet, at about 200 a year, by utilizing normal commercial aircraft to deliver medical professional volunteers.

This will dramatically change as we hand over flying hospitals to humanitarian charities that are already well established.

Someone who had 3 hours of volunteer time could: Assist with fundraising, IT, and other administration

Mission:

To expand humanitarian medical care throughout the developing world, by providing advanced, high-tech resources and medical training ... needed in our very ailing world.

Results:

Global Flying Hospitals is a work in progress. Refurbishing jet aircraft into high-tech surgical hospitals, dental clinics etc. and all containing training facilities, is a lengthy and costly project. However, the more Global Partners we have, the easier it is. (Global Partners donates $23 a month for one year).

Individual donations of $30, $50, $100, $1,000 or more are most welcomed and are a tax deduction.

Corporate sponsorship is invited, and a number of high profiles brands are already in alliance.

Our Asia Region Head Office is in Macau SAR China and the US Region Head Office is West Palm Beach Florida.

We have optioned aircraft, blueprints done, refurbishment facility under contract and on target to have the first aircraft flying in 2012.
