Our mission is to provide medical care to under served populations worldwide by establishing, supporting, and maintaining mission hospitals and by delivering aid to those in need and affected by disaster.

Dr. H. Kyle Sheets officially founded the PAPA Missions in 2003 with the goal of providing practical help to other physicians who had a desire for medical missions, but no practical experience in planning mission trips. Since its inception, the organization’s mission has expanded with arising needs. PAPA Missions now focuses many resources on sending medical supplies and volunteers to impoverished areas throughout the globe. Since 2003, PAPA has sent hundreds of volunteers to over a dozen countries on four different continents, and has shipped medical supplies worth tens of millions of dollars to needy medical facilities around the world.

We encourage you to visit Facebook and Twitter and get in on the conversations taking place there. Your financial gifts are always welcomed as we seek to accomplish our mission. If you can’t give financially, please consider adding us to your daily prayers, or donating your social influence by spreading the word about PAPA Missions and the work we are doing.
