Save Our Supplies

Save Our Supplies

Save Our Supplies sends clean, unused medical tools, garments and equipment to communities in need.

Save Our Supplies (SOS) aims to improve the lives of disadvantaged people by enabling better standards of healthcare through the provision of free medical supplies. SOS create these medical supplies by repurposing clean hospital waste. In so doing, they also have a positive impact on the environment by preventing clean hospital waste being dumped to landfill.

2023 Pitch

Funds Raised: $26,506

Claire, Founder and CEO of Save Our Supplies pitched to significantly expand their collection capability by purchasing an additional delivery vehicle. The funding raised will be used to help purchase the vehicle. The new vehicle will enable SOS to collect an additional 2 tons of clean hospital waste every week.
