Every year, millions of individuals around the world die due to a shortage of the necessary medical supplies available for them according to the World Health organization. To make matters worse, according to the National Academy of Medicine, the United States sees an estimated $765 billion of usable medical supplies go to waste every single year. Hoping to use the surplus of medical supplies in the US to our advantage, the Medical Reallocation Initiative is a humanitarian aid organization founded by bright and hard-working UC Berkeley students hoping to make a positive difference in the world. Through our efforts, we help facilitate and finance the shipment of surplus medical supplies from various facilities in the United States to hospitals and clinics abroad that need them. By partnering with other local organizations to meet this goal, we are able to help get these supplies to the individuals that need them most and save countless lives along the way. Since its creation, MRI has already helped facilitate the transportation of shipments of medical equipment and supplies. These supplies include hospital beds, surgical operating tools, and more. So far, nearly $4 million worth of medical supplies has been shipped thanks to the hard work of MRI. And throughout the next few years, we hope to help send millions more.

First session at the medical relocation warehouse in downtown Berkeley! Last week, I signed up to volunteer for Medical Relocation Initiative (MRI) and reorganized many used medical devices that are prepared to be shipped to other countries to help with hospitals that are in need! A start to an exciting journey!
Recap of our recent fundraiser at UC Berkeley's Memorial Glade on April 20th, where our team, including general and board members, sold horchata, strawberry agua fresca, and fruit cups. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who supported us, both through volunteering their time and purchasing from us. This event wouldn't have been possible without your generous contributions. Thank you for helping us raise funds for our partner, 33 Spine Align in their mission to provide transformative spinal surgeries to individuals in Ghana.
