100% of profits from the sales of Johnny Foolish goes to Médecins Sans Frontières, the world’s leading independent organisation for medical humanitarian aid. Every day more than 24,000 Médecins Sans Frontières field staff are providing assistance to people caught in crises around the world. Offices in 19 countries supporting them.
Médecins Sans Frontières field staff include doctors, nurses, administrators, epidemiologists, laboratory technicians, mental health professionals, logistics and water and sanitation experts. The majority of their teams are made up of national field staff from the countries where the crises are occurring with ten percent made up of international field staff.
Médecins Sans Frontières work is based on the humanitarian principles of medical ethics and impartiality. Because they wish to remain independent they limit the amount of funding they accept from governments. More than 80% of their budget internationally comes from private donations, and in Australia 100% of their budget comes from private sources.
This funding structure means that their teams on the ground can be free to define operational priorities. Their interventions are based on needs alone, not on political, economic, religious or social agendas. It's because of this independence and impartiality, they are able to provide health care to people who otherwise would not receive it.
These doctors and nurses are real-life superheroes... like the kind we worshiped as children.
