Did you know that Papua New Guinea is #152 on the Human Development Index while Australia is #2? 5 women in Papua New Guinea die in childbirth every day, 1 in 13 children die before the age of 5 and someone dies from Tuberculosis every 2 hours — this is just right off our coast in Australia. 

 

For over five years, YWAM Medical Ships (MSA) have transported medical teams into remote areas of Papua New Guinea to deliver vital healthcare and training to the people. In order for their life-saving work to continue, MSA will need to raise $5 million for a new ship.

 

It sounds like an impossible figure, but we believe it is possible to overcome.

 

As a way of helping to make this possible, the Ship DTS will be overcoming our own impossible by working together to walk or run the length of the PNG coastline (5152km) by September 14th. All money raised will go towards the new YWAM Medical Ship as we 'cover the coast' to help out our brothers and sisters over in Papua New Guinea. We will post our progress here regulary as well as on soial media sites so you can see how we are progressing towards our goal. 

 

 

Help us overcome the impossible as we cover the 5152km before September 14th, by sharing my page, commenting, or clicking “donate now” to make a secure online donation.

 

Thanks so much for your support!
