A few quick checks keep the process safe.

Donating medical supplies is generous, but it also needs to be responsible. These guidelines help us protect the people who may receive them.

1

Check the packaging

Supplies should be unopened and in good condition. Damaged or loose items may not be safe to share.

2

Look for expiration dates

If an item has an expiration date, it should still be within date when you contact us.

3

Ask if you are unsure

You do not need to guess. Send us a message with what you have, and we can let you know if it is a fit.

Useful does not always mean complicated.

Some of the most helpful donations are ordinary: gauze, tape, bandages, wipes, masks, and sanitizer. Basic supplies can still make care cleaner, safer, and easier to access.

If your donation is not on this list, that does not always mean it is unusable. Reach out before throwing supplies away, especially if they are unopened and still in good condition.
