KHS provide healthcare gap by distributing surplus medical supplies and equipment to underserved communities in Kenya and emerging countries. Provides equipment ranging from hospital beds and ultrasound machines, to gloves, sutures and wound dressings.

More than $9 billion worth of medical supplies are discarded each year in Kenya. At the same time, less fortunate countries are in desperate need of medical supplies.

KHS closes this health care gap by connecting those who have with those who hope. We procure medical and surgical supplies and equipment — crutches, wheelchairs, scalpels, syringes, gloves, antibiotics, beds, exam tables, and more — and deliver them to health care providers in Kenya and others in the developing world.

Donate Products

For a world of need – KHS encourages the donation of new supplies and new or used equipment that can be sent to different underserved communities around Kenya.

Medical Bridges follows and suggests these basic guidelines when making a supply and/or equipment donation:

KHS accepts supplies up to 14 months prior to expiration.
KHS accepts new and used medical equipment with manuals, instruction material, and/or accessories. Furniture can also be donated.
KHS reserves the right to refuse items.
