We are in need of donated medical equipment and supplies that be used for other sick people. We can arrange to pick up the items in Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego areas. Medical supplies such as gauzes, bandages, spray adhesives, wheelchairs, maternity equipment, asthma treatment equipment, kangaroo pouches, kangaroo enteral pump sets, colostomy supplies, heart support equipment, orthopedic devices, ***oxygen concentrators*** (Portable units only-Respironics, O2 Concepts, or Inogen models), oxygen tanks, antiseptic wipes and other wound care supplies can also be donated.
For all other areas of the USA we can arrange and pay for shipping when funds are available. We will provide a receipt for your tax deduction.
Your medical equipment or medical supplies will be used in 3rd world countries where they have limited access to healthcare. We currently have a medical clinic in Hue, Vietnam that still needs to be stocked with equipment and medical supplies.
We are also in the planning stages of constructing a medical clinic in rural Nicaragua. Most people in the rural areas of Nicaragua travel a significant distance to obtain medical service. They live about 1 hour by car, 2 hour by bus, and 3 to 4 hours by walking. Approximately 60% of childbirths are done without a medical professional. Having a medical clinic nearby would be a tremendous improvement in their lives.
