Review for Global Links, Pittsburgh, PA, USA
i have been involved with global links for over 15 years. As a surgeon and recipient of their aid , in addition to working with them in their office as a volunteer ,I have witnessed first hand the passion and integrity with which they pusue their goal of furnishing needed medical supplies to the underserved throughout the world .Most of these supplies would have ended in land fills without first having gotten the opportunity to fulfill the purpose for which they were manufactured. Globaal LInks runs on a shoe string budget and yet they are able to send thousands of dollars worth of valuable medical equipment all over the world. I have personally packaged and hand carried some of this equipment to Haiti and Ethiopia where without it i would have been unable to perform some of the procedures needed there.
