Extending Healing Care Around the World

Working with local organizations on the ground, we’ve developed programs at 16 international Footprint locations around the world. Each is a faith-based health care organization that shares our mission and vision for extending the healing ministry of Christ to communities where health care providers and resources are limited.

As we look towards 2030, we're working to expand our current number of Footprint locations.

Serving Our Global Communities

We work tirelessly to build deep relationships with faith-based health care organizations around the world who share our mission and focus. We currently have Footprint relationships in 17 countries — and counting.
