Program Description:
Since its founding in 1996, Globus Relief has flourished into an internationally recognized humanitarian medical resource organization providing aid to hundreds of thousands of people around the world.
Their work has been successful due to the relationships that they have established on a local, national and international basis with partner charities, corporations, hospitals, clinics and governments working to provide access to improved healthcare in over 140 countries.
Together we have distributed medical equipment and supplies to hundreds of qualified partner charities working with healthcare institutions and missions worldwide.

Program Description:
Ability 1st Utah one of Utah's Independent Living Centers. Ability 1st Utah has an equipment loan bank for durable medical equipment (DME).
Most of the equipment has been donated to our center, which means that some of the equipment is gently used. Some of the devices are newly purchased from center resources. These devices are available for loan to eligible consumers.
For those unfamiliar with the concept of a loan bank, we offer the use of durable medical equipment (DME) to our consumers on a temporary basis, until permanent equipment can be accessed and placed with the consumer.

Program Description:
Ability Found obtains mobility equipment through organizations and people like you who donate money to help us purchase new equipment and parts.
We also obtain equipment through both new and used in-kind donations. We then we adapt this mobility equipment for the use of others. We spend a great deal of time and effort finding mobility equipment that meets your needs. We charge a low-cost fee for this service.
- 1In-kind mobility and adaptive equipment donations in good condition are a major reason why Ability Found is able to provide equipment to those in need for very low or in some cases no cost. We accept in-kind donations at our warehouse offices as well as those in-kind donations that are shipped to us. Thank you for your generosity.
