Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971. In over 75 countries around the world, MSF saves lives by providing medical aid where it is needed most—in armed conflicts, epidemics, natural disasters, and other crises. The people who work for MSF are doctors, nurses, midwives, epidemiologists, water-and-sanitation experts and many others who combine their professional expertise with a commitment to the world’s most vulnerable people. Each year, these medical teams run close to 470 projects where they care for millions of people. As an organization, MSF is neutral and operates independently of any political, military, or religious agendas. It does not take sides in armed conflicts, provides care based on needs alone, and advocates for increased independent access to victims of conflict and disaster as required under international humanitarian law. Medical teams conduct evaluations on the ground to determine a population's medical needs before opening programs, aiming to fill gaps that exist (rather than replicating services that are already offered) or reach communities that are not being assisted. Over the years, the organization has been the recipient of several awards that recognize its work, including the 1998 Conrad N. Hilton Humanitarian Prize, the 1999 Nobel Peace Prize, the 2012 J. William Fulbright Prize for International Understanding, the 2015 Lasker-Bloomberg Public Service Award, and the 2017 Pardes Humanitarian Prize for Mental Health.

Microsoft s’associe à Benevity pour faciliter ses dons. Votre activité d’utilisation de points sera déduite immédiatement de votre compte. Dans les six semaines suivant la fin du mois au cours duquel vous avez utilisé vos points, Microsoft fera un don financier basé sur votre utilisation au profit d’un fonds orienté par le donateur auprès de Benevity UK Online Giving Foundation (OGF), en lui recommandant d’accorder à l’organisation à but non lucratif de votre choix une subvention correspondante. OGF prendra le contrôle juridique exclusif du don effectué par Microsoft en votre nom. Les utilisations sous forme de dons sont non remboursables. Si l’organisation à but non lucratif que vous avez choisie ne peut pas recevoir de dons (par exemple, si elle ne remplit plus les critères de participation) ou si le don ne peut pas être versé pour une autre raison, le don financier sera reversé à une organisation à but non lucratif choisie par Microsoft. Les organisations à but non lucratif ne sont pas avalisées par Microsoft.
