Doc to Dock Shipment of Medical Equipment
Every day, over 7,000 tons of unused medical equipment are discarded by American hospitals due to overproduction, procedural excess, and regulatory requirements. Doc to Dock collects, sterilizes, and redistributes this equipment to underfunded medical facilities and health clinics around the world. As a result of learning about Doc to Dock’s admirable work, SVQF has pledged broad support for the organization and its goals through holding a fundraiser benefiting Doc to Dock, making direct contributions, and funding a shipment of medical supplies worth an estimated $400,000.
