Doctors Without Borders, our new partner

Thank you all 2014 athletes! By enrolling in our race, you have helped raising NOK 115 000 (USD 15 000) for our new partner Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). Money that we know will be a small but important contribution to their many important humanitarian projects around the world.  

Published: 11.May.2015

This is how MSF describes themselves:

We are Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). We help people worldwide where the need is greatest, delivering emergency medical aid to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters or exclusion from health care.

Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organization that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.

Doctors Without Borders assists people based on need, irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation. Is neutral organization and do not take sides in armed conflicts.

MSF medical teams often witness violence and neglect in the course of their work, largely in regions that receive scant international attention.

At times, MSF may speak out publicly in an effort to bring a forgotten crisis to public attention, to alert the public to abuses occurring beyond the headlines, to criticize the inadequacies of the aid system, or to challenge the diversion of humanitarian aid for political interests.

MSF rejects the idea that poor people deserve third-rate medical care and strives to provide high-quality care to patients. You can also make a difference and support our work:

Norseman Sustain IS for you. It’s for the communities we work with, our team, our volunteers, the people around the world who follow us and support what we do.

We have linked this work to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
