THE MESSAGE PROGRAM Information

The Message Program collects donations of Medical, Dental, EMS, and Fire equipment and supplies. The process includes, sorting, inventorying, and packing the items for shipment. The donations are then transported by air, land, and sea to third world destinations. Upon arrival the donations are gifted out to facilities that provide assistance to the poor. We collect everything from turn-out gear to jaws-of-life from dedicated fire and rescue stations throughout Minnesota. Post it, tweet it, share it. The more people you tell, the more help we can receive. Our volunteers collect medical supplies such as walkers, cains, crutches, beds, linens, disposable and non-disposable items from hospital, clinics and other medical organizations who are looking to recycle and help others. We take anything medical with the exception of medications. The Message Program secures donations of supplies and equipment in the United States of America for distribution to providers in other countries. We distribute items based on an evaluation of the recipients actual need. It ensures that the recipient receiving the donations have the adequate training and capacity to use the donations responsibly.
