Showing Christ’s love with infant incubators
MediCradle Infant Incubator
Our calling
Missionaries around the world know that it can be difficult to establish and maintain close relationships in the communities where they serve. People tend to be wary of “outsiders”, not understanding that those who have come in the name of Jesus want to share His love and care. As followers of Jesus, we are called to be His hands and feet in a hurting world, offering hope, healing, and dignity to all people—especially the sick, the poor, and the vulnerable. Providing communities with medical help is not only a practical act of charity, but also a profound demonstration of God’s care expressed through His generosity.
About MediCradle
One of the major health problems affecting these vulnerable communities is significant infant mortality. According to the World Health Organization*, 675,000 preterm infants die annually due to lack of basic care in the first few hours or days of life.
This is where we come in. We are the MediCradle Foundation, a non-profit group of over 70 volunteers who have come together for the sole purpose of designing, producing, and distributing very high quality, low cost infant incubators specifically for developing countries. All MediCradle Foundation board members are followers of Christ, and it is for His glory that we are reaching out to these most vulnerable infants with the MediCradle incubator.
