MedWish helps to re-purpose discarded medical supplies, and our volunteers help with this process. We collect tens of thousands of pounds of donated supplies each month and rely on volunteers to help us sort through these supplies, checking expiration dates and ensuring product viability.
Sorting takes place through a number of different steps, and volunteers can expect to participate in all steps of the process (examples include sorting medical supplies into categories, matching similar items together, boxing, and labeling inventory).
No medical experience is necessary!

You can also access the survey by:
-
Going to nssesurvey.org
- Clicking on "don't know your login ID"

In appreciation for your participation, students who complete the survey by April 14, 2023, will be automatically entered into a drawing for 1 of 175 Saxbys gift cards worth $5 each.
