Enhancing Healthcare for the Poor Worldwide
AMRF was founded in 1988 to help improve the healthcare of needy communities world wide by donating medical equipment and hospital supplies to the hospitals serving these communities. AMRF performs these missions by collecting, testing, and repairing, if necessary, medical equipment donated by U.
