We are a faith-based, Catholic, Non-Governmental Organization that provides emergency relief after disasters and supports recovery efforts, bridging the gap between humanitarian aid and sustainable development.

We focus on providing relief, vital health care, nutrition, clean water, hygiene, and sanitation, and disaster preparedness to vulnerable people in North, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. Malteser International Americas operates major projects in four key countries: Colombia, Haiti, Mexico and Peru. We also provide disaster relief and recovery in the United States, Puerto Rico, Ecuador, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and in countries where our assistance is requested. With the help of community-based partners and local Order of Malta Associations, children and families live healthier lives with dignity.
