Mission - Contributing to the sustainability of the Earth through redistributing recyclable medical equipment and supplies from those who no longer want them to those who desperately need them.The inspiration for Medearth comes from MedWish International in the United States and its passionate founder Dr. Lee Ponsky. In over 20 years MedWish has recovered more than 1.4 million kgs of medical surplus from nearly 70 hospitals. In 2013, MedWish shipped 199 containers of life saving supplies and equipment to 90 countries and engaged the help of 38,944 volunteers.Recover - MedEarth works with a range of partners to recover medical surplus hospitals can no longer use and would otherwise be destined for landfill.Repurpose - Hospitals generate millions of tons of medical waste each year. Much of that waste is medical supplies and equipment. We prepare the recovered waste for redistribution.Redistribute - Using the surplus we save from going to landfill, we match our inventory to medical needs in Australia and worldwide by partnering closely with both domestic and international partners to ensure that it is redistributed to people who need it.
