In 1971 there was a war in a part of Nigeria called Biafra,in western Africa.People were dying,children were hungry and there was a lot of disease.There were thousands of people who needed medical help-but there were no doctors or nurses to help them.Some doctors from France went to work there as volunteers,and some of them decided to start an organization to help the people in disasters (灾难) all over the world.That was when medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) was born.
Since it started,MFS has helped people all over the world.The disaster might be war or an earthquake that means people need medical help.
About 90% money that MSF needs comes from personal donations (捐款); the rest come from governments and business.MSF helps everyone,it doesn't matter who they are.
MFS has about 3,000volunteer doctors in nearly 60different countries.These volunteers do many different things:some,of course,care for people who are sick or injured,and others,train local doctors and nurses in their own countries.MFS also sends engineers to poor countries to help people to do things like making wells,so they can have clean water.
