MDT is proud to announce the launch of MDT Gives, a long-term charitable initiative designed to support organizations that protect the vulnerable, combat injustice, and bring about meaningful change in communities worldwide. The program officially begins with the Lantern Rescue Charity Auction, supporting Lantern Rescue, an organization working on the front lines of human trafficking and sexual exploitation.
MDT Gives: A New Era of Purpose-Driven Support
MDT Gives embodies MDT’s commitment to using its success and platform for a greater purpose. Through fundraising efforts, awareness campaigns, and collaborative partnerships, MDT Gives will focus on supporting organizations that make measurable, real-world impacts.
“Our industry is built on values like responsibility, integrity, and service,” said MDT President Maarten Van Ruitenburg. “MDT Gives is our way of living those values. We want to stand with organizations that confront difficult problems and work tirelessly to make the world a safer place.”
Partnering with Lantern Rescue
The first partner under the MDT Gives initiative is Lantern Rescue, a global organization whose specialized teams work directly with law enforcement agencies to combat human trafficking. Their personnel include investigators, lawyers, and former military operators who assist in rescue operations, training, and prosecution.
“Lantern Rescue’s work goes far beyond awareness—they act, they intervene, and they protect,” said Van Ruitenburg. “Their teams willingly go into some of the darkest places on earth to bring victims home and hold offenders accountable. We are honored to support that mission.”
Special Edition Lantern Rescue Chassis
To raise funds and elevate awareness, MDT has produced ten special edition rifle chassis engraved with the Lantern Rescue logo. These limited-edition chassis will be auctioned off, with 100% of the proceeds donated directly to Lantern Rescue.
“These rifles symbolize strength and hope,” Van Ruitenburg explained. “Our goal is not just to raise money but also to spark conversations. When someone asks, ‘What’s Lantern Rescue?’ we want more people to learn about the critical work being done.”
Looking Forward
The Lantern Rescue collaboration marks the beginning of a broader effort to use MDT’s platform for positive impact. More partnerships and charitable programs will be introduced under MDT Gives in the future.
“MDT Gives is our long-term commitment to making a difference,” said Van Ruitenburg. “This is only the beginning. We plan to stand with organizations that bring hope, justice, and protection to those who need it most.”
