Lääkärit ilman rajoja (Médecins Sans Frontières, MSF) established an office in Finland in 2018. In a short time, we have grown into a dynamic, vibrant, and constantly developing organization that has found its place in the Finnish NGO sector. The purpose of the Finnish office is to raise awareness about humanitarian crises and to raise funds to help people living in the midst of these crises. Last year, we raised over seven million euros from private individuals, companies, and foundations. MSF Finland employs approximately 30 full-time and 50 part-time employees.
