MeisterMed’s owner is an active member of Medecins Sans Frontieres/Doctors without Borders (MSF) and has done volunteer work with MSF in Guatemala, Uganda, and Liberia. In its first years of existence, MeisterMed contributed a portion of all revenue to Doctors without Borders. In mid-2002, we decided to continue supporting MSF/Doctors without Borders in other ways. For instance, in mid-2002, Dr. Schechtman, the founder of MeisterMed, left for a year of volunteer work with MSF/Doctors without Borders in Liberia. The revenue generated by MeisterMed has helped make extended periods of non-paying work like this feasible. MeisterMed has periodically donated money to MSF but no longer donates a fixed portion of revenue. Please note that the company MeisterMed has no formal relationship with MSF/Doctors without Borders and is not officially affiliated with nor endorsed by this organization.
