More than 66,900 pounds of medical supplies are processed and entered into the Mission Outreach inventory each month. Volunteers provide critical support to make these supplies available to people in need around the world.
Clinics and hospitals in the developing world are often chaotic and operate with very scarce resources. Doctors and nurses need to devote every minute to patient care. Volunteers sort and package supplies, providing order in supply utilization and allowing doctors and nurses to focus on the patients.
Hospitals in the U.S. produce more than 5.9 million tons of waste annually. Volunteers reduce waste, help our environment and give hope, help and health to those in need.
