The Medical Equipment Bank provides equipment and supplies for people with medical needs. Our volunteers receive donated wheelchairs, crutches, walkers and many sorts of medical equipment, and refurbish them for people who need them. Also, supplies such as for incontinence and wound dressings are provided, helping people with pressing medical supply needs. We're currently updating a couple outbuildings used as work areas – to protect volunteers from the chilling cold of the coming winter season.
