Corporate Social Responsibility:
MedShare provides a means for your company to demonstrate that
you care for human life and the environment here and abroad. Since
1998, MedShare has partnered with corporations to recycle and
redistribute quality healthcare products to medically underserved
communities around the world. Corporations such as Coca-Cola
Africa, Kimberly-Clark, Rio Tinto, and others work with MedShare to
ensure that the global communities in which they operate have access
to the quality healthcare that they deserve. Corporate support enables
MedShare to serve as the logistical arm between the surplus and
recycled medical supplies and equipment in the United States and the
enormous need in the economically developing world.
High Impact Health Solutions – Here is how it works:
Hospitals and clinics in a developing country will order, at no charge to them, from
MedShare’s web-accessible inventory database. This approach ensures that they receive
the exact supplies and equipment they need to deliver better care. With financial
support from organizations such as yours, we will ship a 40-foot ocean-going container
directly to the healthcare facility. With your donation, the healthcare facility
receives a container of medical supplies worth US $155,000 average value.
There could be a health facility in the area where you do business right now that is short
of critical medical supplies. There is a crucial need for shipping cost support
right now as we have products aging on our shelves instead being delivered
to the healthcare facilities where they are needed.

2. Strengthen Ties in the Communities Where You Operate:
Through collaboration with MedShare, companies can work to strengthen ties with
governments and local communities through sustainable community healthcare
programs.
