Doctors without Borders, or Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) was officially founded in December 1971. At the time the organization consisted of 300 volunteers: doctors, nurses, and other staff, including 13 founding doctors and journalists. Over the years, MSF has grown to be an independent, global movement providing medical aid where it's needed most, implementing the right to medical care regardless of gender, race, religion, creed, or political affiliation.

To assure their global presence and respond as fast as possible to the emergencies, Doctors without Borders has 21 offices located all over the world, followed by offices in Geneva and two United Nations liaison offices. Up and ready for every situation, MSF makes sure to have the necessary resources in order at all time, such as:

Pre-packed disaster - kits ready for transportation within hours

Supply centers across the globe - four logistical centers based in Europe and East Africa plus stores of emergency materials in Central America and East Asia

Cost-reducing logistics - a dedicated staff who negotiates with appropriate officials to insure the import taxes on medication are correct and material delivered as quickly as possible

Currently MSF employs more than 30,000 people across the world and has treaded over a hundred million patients - with 8.25 million outpatient consultations being carried out in 2014 alone. In 1999, Doctors without Borders was awarded a Nobel Prize for World Peace in recognition of the organization's pioneering humanitarian work on several continents.

The MSF site is a prime example of a complex website that embraces the power of Drupal. Strong multisite capabilities, proven track record of handling high traffic and its flexibility were few of the reasons Drupal was chosen as their website CMS.
