About Samaritan Aviation

Samaritan Aviation operates some of the only floatplanes in Papua New Guinea, the second largest island in the world.  They currently serve in the East Sepik Province whose population is estimated at 500,000. They serve those living in the East Sepik through emergency evacuation flights, medicine delivery, disaster relief and community health programs.

 

Why They Do it:

Samaritan Aviation exists to demonstrate God’s love by providing aviation and medical services in remote areas. Eighty percent of the residents within the East Sepik Province live in remote areas without access to the one hospital in this province. 220,000 of those residents live along a large river called the Sepik. Samaritan Aviation is providing access to critical medical care and health services that in most cases might not otherwise be available.
