Where to donate equipment and supplies?

I find local senior centers a great source of donated (i.e. Free) medical supplies. So call your local center or agency for aging and donate

Your local VFW or American Legion may be interested in having those things that they can provide to veterans in need.

Many churches have health miniseries and would be grateful to receive what you have. Thank you for thinking about donating and not just throwing out,

I need this! I can arrange for pickup and storage till I have a chance to come and get it back to KY. I had a recent post on this site about looking for a wheelchair, was hoping someone like you would answer - but no one did.

Seriously, this website could use a page that cross-references notices from people who NEED THINGS and those who HAVE THINGS can link up. I'd be happy to coordinate this effort.

How about Goodwill?

You might contact an in h home care provider. The one we used was thrilled to accept what we wanted to give. Many people can't afford diapers and supplies.

What about your local Visiting Nurse ? They know of homecare clients who are in need of supplies.

Please call your local Area Agency on Aging. I work at my local "AAA" and I am always looking for adult diapers and chux for my clients. Our focus is on people who do not qualify for Medicaid and most of our clients still make so little these supplies are very much appreciated.

I would try local senior centers, Councils On Aging, and community based Elder Service Area Agencies. I'm sure there are many seniors living on limited incomes, but inelegible for Medicaid, who would be grateful to have these things.

Oley foundation donates to families that can t afford supplies. They donate by listing your supplies on a database. Call them or email them ..

Hope that helps
