Mercy Trucks Verified non-profit organisation

(Verified non-profit organisation)

Mercy Trucks is a volunteer organization of professionals and dedicated individuals who help link the resources of one part of the world to the needs of another by using shipping containers and trucks. We also work in the area of disaster relief and provide equipment and supplies, along with opportunities for volunteers to support and encourage locals who are working to create sustainable community infrastructure, including agricultural, sports, educational and medical development. We then convert the trucks into mobile medical and dental units, which then act as a stepping-stone into building up a more permanent healthcare infrastructure. We are also endeavouring to attack the massive scale problems of child trafficking, child prostitution and child slavery and working to support vocational training facilities for young people who have had to endure such unfortunate circumstances. It is only through the generosity of those who partner with us, that we able to realize our vision of empowering the hurting, with hope and healing.
