As the operater of a pediatric neurosurgical hospital in eastern Uganda, we rely heavily on donated and procured supplies and equipment not available in-country. MedShare has been a integral partner in delivering the highest quality neurosurgery to some of the neediest and most vulnerable children in the world. Their sense of urgency and professionalism help them stand out in the crowd. We apprecaite their commitment to us and our work.
The Great!

Although some challenges are unavoidable, better descriptions of some supplies and (equipment) accessories would help in the ordering process.

MedShare is one of those rare instances where everything just clicks and is just right. MedShare collects unused medical supplies and equipment from hospitals that would otherwise go into our landfills. ENVIRONMENT PROTECTED. It then sorts, verifies and boxes the supplies, and sends it to pre-verified recipients. But unlike a lot of charities that "assume" what a recipient needs or wants, MedShare asks the recipient what it needs, and ships exactly that. No waste of material, no wasted shipping costs. LIVES SAVED. Many times, donors don't follow up to make sure that their gifts are properly used and that the gifts are in the right hands. MedShare always follows-up and ensures that its donations are appropriately used. MedShare just does things right and I am very proud to be associated with them.

I have had a lot of experience in Africa with NGO's and have seen so much waste, which is so incredibly frustrating. MedShare is an incredible organization, working extremely efficiently and well to bring improved healthcare to people all over the world.

I don't really have areas of change. I only wish more people knew about this fine organization.
