Review for Global Links, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
I have volunteered with Global Links about eight times now. I continue to be impressed with their mission to recycle hospital materials (from unused syringes to used hospital beds, from sterile unused needles to ultrasound machines...). We spend our time sorting everything by date, by size, or by whatever parameters the coordinators offer us. We work solidly for two hours, until we have sorted, counted, grouped and boxed thousands upon thousands of instruments, tubing, etc. This non-profit organization is helping third world countries have the medical equipment and supplies that they need to work under horrendous conditions. I am proud to work with them.
