Making a world of difference since 1993!
This year is MedWish International's 30th anniversary.
Whether you're new to MedWish or have been part of our efforts since the beginning, we hope you will join us as we mark this exciting milestone. We have a lot planned for 2023 and will be keeping this page updated all year long showcasing our operations, stories from our MedWish family, and ways that YOU can MAKE YOUR MARK!
December feature:
What does your dollar do?
Your dollars are the cog that keeps the MedWish machine going.
At MedWish, we believe that every person deserves access to quality medical supplies and equipment, regardless of their location or economic status. That's why we work tirelessly to bridge the gap between excess and need.
That's where you come in. Your generous donations help us cover the costs of collecting, storing, and preparing these items for distribution.

Pictured here are laparoscopic instruments sent from MedWish to Kharkiv. These instruments were sterilized and prepared for a surgical procedure that would have been far more invasive without them, leaving a potential for greater complications and longer recovery time.
We want to give a huge thank you to the volunteer groups that choose to spend their time at MedWish International! Here are a few of the groups that have stopped by the warehouse recently:
- MetLife Legal Plans
- Specialty Networks
- Cleveland Clinic
- Andrews Osbourne Academy

MedWish International surpassed 600 Local Giving orders this week! In the midst of a busy day of supply and equipment pick ups at our warehouse, we managed to capture our Local Programs Assistant, Portia, fulfilling an order for a MetroHealth social worker`s client, which included canes and a wheelchair.
We are so thrilled to be able to connect with so many local organizations that allow us to provide greater access to medical supplies and equipment within our community!
There is much to consider, and it has been an inspiring process that reflects the 1+1=3 impact promise of our combined MedWish and Medworks mission! We would love your input through the survey linked in our bio!
We recognize our approach is a little risky since our final decision will not reflect all of the good ideas offered to us. However, power of community is one of the strongest common values connecting MedWish and Medworks. We are grateful that we have such a large and diverse community and your input is important to us.
Click the link in our bio to access the survey, which should take less than 10 minutes to complete. Please submit by July 21, 2024.
Special thanks to all of the @ClevelandClinic volunteers that have come to help at our warehouse recently. We always appreciate the level of support you all provide and the continued dedication to the mission of MedWish!
Your efforts make a significant impact on our community and the lives of those we serve. We look forward to continuing this journey together and we thank you, again, for being such a large part of our MedWish community!
