Mano a Mano staff and volunteers are busy loading 3 40-ft. containers at our St. Paul, Minnesota warehouse with medical supplies, mobility equipment, and other in-demand items for Bolivia! In Bolivia, Mano a Mano staff and volunteers will distribute them to people and organizations in need throughout the country.
We have sent 6 containers with 155,040 pounds of medical supplies, mobility equipment, and other in-demand items from Minnesota to Bolivia in 2023 (this week’s shipment will make it 9 containers with over 200,000 pounds for the year; we shipped 220,704 pounds in 2022). Almost all of these supplies would have ended up in the landfill in Minnesota, and instead they are getting put to good use throughout Bolivia.
