Thanks Bridge View School for the donation of child’s wheelchairs today! These wheelchairs will be included in our next shipment of supplies from St. Paul to Bolivia; once they arrive in Bolivia they are distributed to people in need throughout the country.

Distributing Wheelchairs in Bolivia

Here’s a specialty wheelchair that was donated to a child a few years ago, during a distribution event at Mano a Mano’s hangar in Cochabamba, Bolivia:

From Minnesota to Bolivia: Distributing Donated Medical Supplies

Mano a Mano collects donated supplies in Minnesota and ships them to Bolivia, where they are distributed to people and organizations in need throughout the country.

Check out footage and interviews from our most recent large-scale distribution of supplies in October 2016 at the Mano a Mano warehouse in Cochabamba, Bolivia, when more than 90,000 pounds of supplies were given away:

The Program that Started Mano a Mano

The surplus program is the program that started Mano a Mano more than 22 years ago; with the dedicated support of hundreds of volunteers in both the US & Bolivia, we have collected and shipped millions of pounds of supplies since 1994.

Our most recent shipment was in August 2017; check out pictures and learn more about that shipment here.
