Project Mend Inc.

Unverified non-profit organisation

Project Mend Inc. provides low-income disabled people access to medical equipment, supplies and other services, which enable them to live as independently as possible and remain contributing members of the community.

By addressing the needs of medically vulnerable individuals in the community, Project MEND effectively reduces the gap in service to low-income persons with disabilities. Clients served do not have the means to obtain the critical medical equipment any other way. Results of the Project MEND programs include recovered mobility and independence, increased ability of individuals to care for themselves or to actively assist in their care, improved self-esteem and cost savings to the community. Refurbished equipment is ½ the cost of new, keeps bulky items out of landfills, and extends the useful life of costly equipment.
