Thank you to the volunteers from Amazon Web Services that helped out at Mano a Mano’s St. Paul warehouse today!
Mano a Mano collects donated medical supplies, mobility equipment, and other in-demand items in Minnesota for shipment to Bolivia, where they are distributed to people and organizations in need throughout the country. 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 (we also provide supplies to organizations and individuals in the Twin Cities area). Most of these supplies are cost-prohibitive or unavailable at all in Bolivia, making them very helpful for people and organizations with limited resources.
Recent Shipment Schedule
Every 3-4 months, we schedule a shipment of 2-4 containers from Minnesota to Bolivia, which takes about 3-4 months (sometimes longer) to go from door-to-door in St. Paul to Mano a Mano in Cochabamba.
- December 2023: Shipped 3 containers from Minnesota
- March 2024: Those 3 containers arrived at our warehouse in Bolivia
- April 2024: Loaded 3 containers in Minnesota that are now on their way to Bolivia
In Bolivia, supplies sent from Minnesota are distributed on a regular basis. Thank you to the many people that make this process possible!
