Since its foundation, the Swedish section has grown at an impressive rate. By the end of 2008, MSF Sweden had 120 000 private donors supporting the organisation, while the Swedish government through Sida contributed with 83.4 million SEK in addition to the 195.6 million SEK raised that year within private fundraising. In 2008, the Swedish section had 105 departures of field workers to the field.
