MFAN believes U.S. development and humanitarian assistance are essential tools for advancing peace and prosperity and America’s influence and strength. These investments not only save lives, they advance U.S. national interests, spur economic growth, strengthen alliances, and promote global stability. 

MFAN works to strengthen the effectiveness, accountability, and sustainability of U.S. development and humanitarian assistance so it delivers lasting results for communities around the world and value for U.S. taxpayers. We believe effective international assistance can help build more resilient societies, expand economic opportunity, and advance global stability and shared prosperity.

MFAN believes in international assistance grounded in accountability, evidence, and country ownership. We value practical solutions, diverse perspectives, and collaboration across sectors and political viewpoints.
