Our History

After the 2010 earthquake that rocked Haiti, emergency response and relief organizations were left in total disarray. It was at this time that Dr, Adam Beckett recognized the need for a relief agency that could be nimble and would advocate for the sharing of information amongst other Nonprofit organizations, that would work together to coordinate teams of experts and professionals to deploy for high-impact trips in regions of need.

Since then, Global First Responder has evolved into an organization that advocates for healthcare delivery and equity globally, community health education, disaster relief efforts and sustainability projects. Welcoming volunteers of all skill sets, Global First Responder has teams of more than just medical professionals. We often have construction teams that work on the ground to provide sustainable projects such as building schools, creating clean water infrastructure and clinic design and we build water treatment facilities capable of cleaning 10,000 gallons per day with local water engineers and labor.

To date, Global First Responder has worked in a total of 36 countries to provide positive community endorsed sustainable infrastructure and healthcare solutions.

We believe that everyone has the right to have access to quality healthcare and quality of life and we choose to live together as One World, One Family.
