Why ships?
Our hospital ships bring free, life-changing surgeries directly to women, men and children who need help most. Every year, we train thousands of healthcare professionals onboard our floating hospitals.
Why Africa?
Nine out of ten people in sub-Saharan Africa have no access to safe surgery. We partner with African nations to build stronger healthcare services. Together, we make a lasting impact – long after our ships depart.
Why you?
Our hospital ships are powered by you. With your support, we can bring hope and healing to people who have no one else to turn to.

What a PartnerShip means to our supporters
Thanks to our amazing supporters
“When I heard that Teekay was searching for crew for this hospital ship, I was curious and wanted to experience working on it. I was interested to see a new environment, to have new experiences, and to learn how a hospital ship works. I’m glad that I am the chosen one to represent our company and to apply all the skills I have learned from my 15 years of experience onboard.”
