MESA - Medical Equipment & Supplies Abroad is a 501(c)3 non-profit and was formed in 1981 by the Rotary Clubs of Northwest Ohio District 6600.
MESA collects and sends medical and educational materials around the globe. In the United States, there is a huge wealth of usable medical equipment and supplies that are no longer in service.
The second-hand surplus in our conuntry is often state-of-the-art to the healing needs of developing countries. Rotarians have the resources to collect, sort, identify, store and ship millions of dollars of still-usable medical supplies and equipment.
The supplies and equpment go from MESA's warehouse in Forstoria, into a shipping container, and then into the port of a local Rotary Club for distribution.
"It really helps people all over the world and helps recycle medical equipment rather than being thrown away or discarded. It's good environmentally, it's good economically, and it's good medically." ~ Dr. David Weldy - MESA volunteer and Assoicate Professior, University of Toledo, Department of Family Medicine.
MESA is also in partnership with Resource Centers International specifcally for computers and educational equipment.
We have the resources to collect, store, and ship millions of dollars of usable medical and humanitarian equipment and supplies. You are the key. MESA's efforts in getting surplus equipment and supplies into the right hands would not be possible without your help.
