We save, procure, repurpose donated medical surplus and distribute it to resource-limited healthcare facilities worldwide. Thus Medical Bridges ® was born.

We are bridging the healthcare gap worldwide! 💛
www.medicalbridges.org Medical Bridges ® recovers medical surplus that would otherwise be discarded and redistributes it locally for disaster response, and to hospitals, clinics and healthcare providers in less fortunate countries. Our goal is to bridge the healthcare gap, connecting those who have with those who hope. Each person who receives medica

l care because of a Medical Bridges ® donation is a testament to the power of giving health and giving hope. WHERE SURPLUS FINDS PURPOSE

Over $9 billion of medical supplies are discarded each year in the United States. As medical technologies advance, outmoded (but perfectly good) equipment and supplies gather dust in hospital storage rooms across the nation. At the same time, people all over the world are suffering and dying because their community urgently needs these life saving tools. In 1997 Dr. Patricia Brock decided to do something about the waste. On a medical mission to El Salvador, she was struck by the country’s lack of basic medical supplies. Upon returning to Houston, Dr. Brock, and a group of concerned individuals, established a recycling program to channel unused medical equipment and supplies (everything from MRI machines to bandages) to qualified healthcare providers who desperately needed them.

⚽Houston is feeling the energy of the DRC this week.
This morning, our Head of Marketing Akinyi Adoyo, had the privilege of joining a breakfast roundtable hosted by the Kaba Consortium and attended by leaders, supporters, and members of Texas’ vibrant Congolese community.

A special thank you to Ephimeral Mobile Embassy of Sports, Tourism & Culture for creating a space where culture, connection, and possibility could meet.

Later, at the watch party, the room came alive. The colors. The music. The conversations. The unwavering pride. There is something powerful about the way sports bring people together across generations, professions, languages, and borders.

As we listen and connect with community members, we are reminded that development begins with relationships. Before partnerships. Before projects. Before policy. People gather around a shared dream.

At Medical Bridges, we have been honored to support healthcare efforts in the Democratic Republic of Congo and today offered another reminder of the incredible opportunities that emerge when communities, institutions, and partners come together around a common purpose.

As the Leopards take the field in Houston, we celebrate not only the team, but the culture, resilience, and spirit they represent.
To the Congolese community: we wish you a match filled with courage, excellence, and joy.
Go Leopards!

This summer, we’re grateful to welcome Cheryl and Anna Northcutt to the Medical Bridges volunteer family. As a mother-daughter team, they are spending their time helping extend medical care and hope to communities around the world.

Even more inspiring, Anna is exploring a future career in nursing; a reminder that compassion, service, and leadership often begin long before the first day on the job.

Supporting Healthcare Heroes Around the World

We are incredibly grateful to FIGS for their generous donation of several pallets of medical apparel to Medical Bridges.

Healthcare professionals are at the heart of every health system, and access to quality uniforms helps them provide care with confidence and dignity. Through our global partnerships, these donated scrubs and apparel will reach healthcare providers serving communities around the world.

This gift is more than clothing; it is an investment in the people who care for others every day.

Thank you, FIGS, for helping us strengthen healthcare globally and for standing alongside Medical Bridges in our mission to improve access to care.

💙 Together, we are delivering hope, dignity, and healthier futures.

CARE

Box by box, what begins in a warehouse becomes support for hospitals, clinics, and patients around the world.

Sometimes care looks like a doctor at a bedside.
Sometimes it looks like a stack of boxes waiting to be shipped.

Either way, it moves lives forward.

🇺🇦 Building Bridges of Hope for Ukraine 🌍

We were honored to welcome the new Consul General for Ukraine, Vitalii Moshkivskyi, and Consul Pavlo Moiseichenko to Medical Bridges for a tour, lunch, and meaningful discussion about advancing humanitarian support for Ukraine.

The need remains urgent. Since the start of the conflict, over 2,500 hospitals and healthcare facilities, along with 68 medical warehouses, have been attacked—including children's and maternity hospitals. Access to quality medical care continues to be a critical challenge for millions.

Medical Bridges has responded by delivering more than $20 million in medical equipment and supplies to support healthcare providers serving communities across Ukraine. Together with partners, donors, and dedicated leaders, we remain committed to ensuring lifesaving resources reach those who need them most.

Thank you to Consul General Moshkivskyi and Consul Moiseichenko for visiting Medical Bridges and for the opportunity to discuss how collaboration can strengthen healthcare access and humanitarian relief.

💙💛 Every shipment represents hope, healing, and solidarity.
