11 palettes consisting of 150 cartons totalling 2160kg of much needed unused stoma therapy supplies that were saved from landfill by MedEarth have arrived at Calsto Care in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. These stoma therapy supplies greatly improve the quality of life of the patients being cared for at the centre who have had bowel surgery.
This is an initiative started by Ron Kaplan, who had for many years worked tirelessly with generous donors and Calsto Care to ensure the much needed unused stoma therapy supplies were saved from landfill and were sent to Zimbabwe. Ron has now entrusted MedEarth to carry his legacy forward.
