Who We Help

Provide Free Medical Transport Services to Patients in Need.

Providing Access to Healing – One Patient at a Time 

Removing the Barrier to Medical Care with 

Free Medical Transport Services.

When a patient is diagnosed with a life-threatening disease or a serious health issue their lives can quickly be turned upside-down. Often the medical care they need is at a distant healthcare center.  Faced with financial uncertainty, the cost of transportation to the clinical care they need can be a challenge for many patients.

A Legacy of Providing No-Cost Transportation to Patients

Mercy Medical Angels has provided free transportation to medical care since 1972 ensuring that no one in need is denied medical care because they don't have transportation. Ground transportation is provided with gas cards, bus and train tickets. Air transportation is flown by volunteer pilots or a commercial airline partner. 


All patients must be physically capable of boarding a small airplane or commercial airliner and require no medical assistance during travel. 


Our mission is to remove the barrier to medical care with transportation on the ground and in the air. The patients we serve are the faces of our mission. They are the heroes of their own stories as they battle illness. They are the reason Mercy Medical Angels exists. Helping cancer patients, children, Veterans and their families in need – these individuals and families are why we do what we do. 

The transportation services are true blessings to the patients you enable us to serve. Your gift allows them to focus on healing. They no longer have to spend their time worrying whether or not they can afford the high cost of travel. But they can’t continue their fight without your help. These patients suffer from desperate financial and medical need, and they count on donors like you to restore and renew their lives. 


Once you start getting involved with Mercy Medical Angels, you won’t want to stop. Giving unused frequent flier miles, donating money, volunteering, and even spreading awareness through social media and word of mouth can all support the mission. When you give to Mercy Medical Angels, you’re giving the gifts of life and hope. Together, we can ensure a healthy and happy future.
